Ego Depletion and the Internet: Can We Study Ego-Depletion Online?
… refer to the attenuation of self-regulation as ego depletion. Recent research has successfully utilized computer based depletion manipulations and measures. Previous research has focused on depletion tasks and measures in a laboratory setting, but no known research has extended ego depletion …

Ego Depletion and Delay of Gratification
Ego depletion suggests that self-control draws from a limited resource. Therefore, resistance to immediate temptation can be impaired when that resource is depleted. Participants performed a difficult or easy serial subtraction task (cognitive processing) in front of or in the absence of a video …

Preventing and Repairing Ego Depletion Through Humor
<p>The theory of ego depletion views the capacity for self-control as a finite internal resource that declines with continual use. As the levels of this resource decline, performance within a host of domains is impaired, resulting in negative behavioral outcomes. Previous studies have sought to …

The Role of Attention in Ego-Depletion
<p>The resource model of ego-depletion is unable to account for the results of several ego-depletion studies, whereas a recent mechanistic revision by Inzlicht and Schmeichel (2012) has focused on the role of attention and motivation in an effort to explain the phenomenon. Assessment of attention's …

The Truth About Lying: Does a Lie Cause Ego Depletion?
<p>Ego depletion is defined as the loss of self-control resulting from prior acts of self-control. Several tasks cause ego depletion, including effortful cognitive tasks. I proposed that lying would create ego depletion due to the cognitive control associated with telling a lie. I further …

Ego Depletion-Induced Aberrant Driving in the Post-Work Commute
… workday stress hampers commuting safety, while ego depletion research has demonstrated that prior self-regulation leads to performance decrements in subsequent tasks. This study sought to unite these two lines of research by proposing that ego depletion-induced alterations in attention and …

The Effects of Ego Depletion and Deception on Thin-Slicing Accuracy
… study was designed to examine the effects of ego depletion and deception on thin slicing. Experiment 1 examined whether participants could identify a video that contained a lie at an accuracy rate better-than-chance. Fifty-five percent of participants selected the deception video, which …

Ego Depletion and Boredom: Does Boredom Compromise Future Acts of Self-control?
… one of three tasks. The tasks consisted of a non-ego depleting self-control task, an ego-depleting self-control task, and a task shown to induce boredom, with the nondepleting and depleting conditions having been replicated from research by Job, Dweck, and Walton (2010). In the non-depleting …

The Importance of Restraint in Gauging the Effects of Ego Depletion on Alcohol Motivation
… depleted following repeated use. The term “ego depletion” is used to refer to this temporary loss of self-control. The current study examined the effect of ego depletion on alcohol-related cognitions to determine if the strength of alcohol-related cognitions is affected by temporary loss of …

Age differences in the underlying mechanisms of product placement influence
… impact. By way of example, the theory of ego depletion is evaluated and discussed in relation to ageing effects and product placement research. Finally, I consider how cognitive resource and ego depletion may interact with consumer viewing habits to mediate placement efficacy. In this …

On second thought: Low-effort thought promotes hierarchy values
… did not shift in equality values. Study 4 used ego depletion to manipulate cognitive effort while assessing values. Participants' value ratings under ego depletion did not significantly differ from those in the control group. Results of three studies suggest that low-effort thought processing …

Integrating States, Traits, and a Dual-process Approach with Criminal Decision-making Literature: Theoretical and Methodological Advancements
… 2019). Secondly, using a standard experimental ego-depletion task, I sought to examine how state self-control directly and indirectly influenced criminal behavior. Although participants were successfully depleted, there was no main effect of ego-depletion on criminal behavior. However, while …

Not All Leaders Are Perceived Equal: The Interaction between Leader Gender, Perceiver Gender, and Emotion Suppression on Leader Ratings
… emotion suppression (i.e. being in a state of ego depletion; Baumeister et al., 1998) were predicted to rely more heavily on their stereotypes when making subsequent judgments; hence, ego-depleted individuals would demonstrate more bias in their ratings of the female leader relative to the male …

Emotions surrounding restrained eating in young adult students

Exploring the effects of mental fatigue on perceptual motor task performance and kinematics
Mentally demanding tasks that require performance accuracy are common in several occupations. However, little is known about how mental fatigue can impact accuracy performance. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis was to examine the impacts of mental fatigue on performance accuracy and arm …

Not If, But When Do We Show Bigotry? A Study of the Interaction of Emotional Resource Depletion and Egalitarianism with Expressions of Bigotry
… 2007). It is well-established in the resource depletion literature that acting beyond natural impulses requires self-regulation. However, the capacity for self-regulation is limited; prior acts of self-regulation deplete regulatory resources, hence temporarily decreasing the ability to …

EMOTION SUPPRESSION AND ITS IMPACT ON POSITIVE EMOTION EXPERIENCE.

Forty-three sport and exercise students performed either an incongruent (self-control depletion) or congruent (control) Stroop task before and after performing a virtual reality cycling task on an indoor cycling ergometer. Findings showed …
