The purpose of the present study was to investigate effects of implementation intentions on taking one multivitamin tablet, everyday, for 2 weeks, among individuals who endorsed self-concordant and self-discordant forms of motivation. A 2 (implementation intentions: yes, no) × 3 (motivation: self-concordance, self-discordance, control) experimental design was adopted with university students being exposed to manipulations of implementation intentions, self-concordance, and self-discordance (male = 110, female = 120, M age = 23.50 years, SD = 7.21). Results of the study indicated that while implementation intentions increased multivitamin intake for individuals who endorsed self-concordant and self-discordant forms of motivation, the combination of self-concordance and implementation intentions produced particularly enhanced levels of compliance on multivitamin intake. The implications of results of the present study to theory development and practice are discussed.
本研究旨在探讨实施意向对 2 周内每天服用一片多种维生素的影响，研究对象为认同自我一致和自我不一致动机形式的个体。采用 2（实施意向：是，否）×3（动机：自我一致，自我不一致，控制）实验设计，让大学生接受实施意向、自我一致和自我不一致的操作（男性=110，女性=120，M 年龄=23.50 岁，SD=7.21）。研究结果表明，虽然实施意向增加了认同自我一致和自我不一致动机形式的个体对多种维生素的摄入，但自我一致和实施意向的结合产生了特别增强的多种维生素摄入依从性水平。讨论了本研究对理论发展和实践的意义。
