In a classic study, Markus (1977) asked individuals who viewed themselves as 'independent', those who viewed themselves as 'dependent' and those who viewed this dimension as unimportant to them, to indicate which of a series of adjectives related to independence/dependence were self-descriptive (me vs. not me). As expected, responded faster to adjectives than to adjectives

Dependent individuals, dependent adjectives,  independent adjectives

Explanation:

Markus published an influential article on the topic of self schemas. From Markus's research experiment it was observed as expected, that dependent individuals responded faster to dependent adjectives than to independent ones.

So the response "me vs. not me" was influenced by self views of individuals, showing us they process information about themselves.
