Introspection is one of the basic research methods of psychology. Introspection is also called self-observation. This is an inherent subjective phenomenon, and we can realize ourselves. It can also be said that it is an observation of one's subjective experience and its changes.
Because of its subjectivity, introspection has been a long-standing debate topic in psychology since ancient times. The argument is whether it is objective and reliable. In addition, introspection can also be regarded as self-reflection, which is also emphasized by Confucianism. From this point of view, it can be applied to the computer field, such as Java introspection mechanism and cocoa introspection mechanism.

For prudence and independence, Liu Shaoqi gave a more popular explanation: when a person works independently and unsupervised, it is possible to do all kinds of bad things. Whether people do evil, whether they are "cautious and independent" and to what extent they can achieve are important yardsticks to measure whether people insist on self-cultivation and the size of their achievements.
As a method of self-cultivation, "cautious independence" not only played an important role in ancient moral practice, but also has important practical value for today's socialist moral construction.
