High self - esteem (HSE) is increasingly recognized as heterogeneous. By measuring subtypes of HSE, the present research reevaluates the finding that HSE individuals show poor self - regulation following ego threat (Baumeister, Heatherton, & Tice, 1993). In Experiment 1, participants with HSE showed poor self - regulation after ego threat only if they also were defensive (high in self - presentation bias). In Experiment 2, two measures - self - presentation bias and implicit self - esteem - were used to subtype HSE individuals as defensive. Both operationalizations of defensive HSE predicted poor self - regulation after ego threat. The results indicate that : (a) only defensive HSE individuals are prone to self - regulation failure following ego threat and (b) measures of self - presentation bias and implicit self - esteem can both be used to detect defensiveness.
