Despite decades of research, we do not have a clear or unitary definition of self-control!
In this article, I discuss:
• Is self-control an ability or a personality trait?
• Should habits count as self-control?

Further robust evidence suggesting green nudges at the individual level are unlikely to make a difference. As we recently suggested, it is time to abandon the prevailing success focus and rather think of this body of evidence as pointing to the many structural constraints people are facing, and

🌟 Thrilled to be collaborating on an exciting unconference organized by @abrir.bsky.social at #BTSCON2025!

..while a greater number of less adaptive strategies (i.e., rumination and suppression) predicting worse momentary affect.

Lastly, exploratory analyses revealed that quantity of strategies employed also matter when predicting momentary affect, with a greater number of adaptive strategies (i.e., distraction and reappraisal) predicting more positive momentary affect,...

We further tested momentary mental exhaustion and individual propensity to experience distress as moderators of strategy efficacy, and contrary to our hypotheses, reappraisal was more successful at higher levels of mental exhaustion to improve momentary affect.

As predicted, ruminating about stressful experiences predicted worse momentary affect, while none of the other assessed strategies (i.e., distraction, reappraisal, and suppression) were associated with momentary affect.

Grateful to have had such an amazing team on this- Pauline Goodson, Ariana Orvell, @dororeis.bsky.social , @malfrie.bsky.social , Bryan Denny!
