Abstract
Fixed mindset is associated with lower engagement. Existing interventions that seek to increase growth mindset use information unrelated to the individual’s self-concept. In the current study, we found increases in growth mindset through the use of self-generated, autobiographical narratives of growth experiences, which may be implemented within the classroom.
