Identity resides at the highest levels of the goal hierarchy. Higher-level, more abstract, longer-term (“why”) construals connect actions to identity. Lower-level, more concrete, shorter-term (“how”) construals distance actions from identity. Only some aspects of identity are shown; others (e.g., actual self, important past events) are not necessarily higher-level. [Adapted from Carver & Scheier, 1998.]
