Zhuangzi’s Self-attribution and Affective Education (Article written in Chinese)

Man-Wah CHAN

Abstract

This article explores Zhuangzi’s (Chuang-tzu) fables in the Inner Chapters and finds that he depicted examples of self-serving biases. Because self-serving biases in attribution enhance individuals’ self-esteem and self-efficacy, this article demonstrates that Zhuangzi’s fables can be useful teaching materials in affective education. The limitations of applying these materials are also discussed.
