Self-forgiveness versus excusing: The roles of remorse, effort, and acceptance of responsibility (2006, background): “As suggested by Tangney and colleagues (2005), asking people whether they would forgive themselves in hypothetical situations may tap responses more similar to excusing than what theorists would call authentic self-forgiveness (see also Brown & Phillips, 2005).”
