Psychological research on self-talk and mindset

Overview

Psychological research explores the cognitive and emotional functions of self-talk, noting that verbalizing thoughts can assist with idea organization, memory, and executive functions like problem-solving. In high-stress moments, constructive self-talk may help create distance between emotions and impulsive reactions.

Studies also indicate that self-talk is an internalized dialogue often shaped by early life experiences and external social messages. While it can involve recognizing manipulative communication patterns in others, such as gaslighting, the practice of self-talk focuses on replacing harsh self-criticism with compassionate, growth-oriented language to manage mindset and self-perception.
