This study explores how individuals' perceptions of self in relation to others shape their engagement in self-reflexive processes and their adoption of healthy and unhealthy self-practices. Using a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 191 Kosovar university students (69% female, M = 22.4 years). Independent self-construals, particularly the self-reliance dimension, positively and significantly predicted both engagement in self-reflection and need for self-reflection. However, certain interdependent self-construal dimensions, such as 'variability' (as opposed to consistency) and 'connection to others' (as opposed to self-containment), positively and significantly predicted self-reflexivity measures. Thus, findings highlight the complex, multidimensional nature of the relationship between self-construals and self-reflexivity. Second, and consistent with expectations, independent self-construals (self-interest and self-expression) were positively associated with healthy self-practices, at both composite and dimensional level, whereas interdependent self-construal tendencies were not. Third, findings highlight a reflexive pathway linking independent self-construals to healthy self-practices. The effects are conditional on demographics and socio-economic status, underscoring the importance of socio-cultural context in shaping self-regulatory behaviors. Notably, neither self-construals nor self-reflexivity predicted unhealthy self-practices.
