Synopsis

Bringing together a stellar array of self-regulation researchers, this comprehensive and authoritative Handbook addresses the breadth of current theories, findings, and practical applications in the field. Examined are the conscious and non-conscious processes by which people regulate their thoughts, emotions, attention, impulses or appetites, and task performances; the developmental trajectories of these capacities; and implications for personal relationships, addictions, consumption, and mental health. The ways individuals differ in their basic abilities and styles of self-control are considered, as are strategies for enhancing functioning in this area. Offering cutting-edge coverage of a key dimension of human experience, the Handbook also identifies important questions for future investigation.
