We argue that a closer look at the practices and tools that humans use to support willpower, and the cultural contexts in which they are employed, can broaden the applicability of Ainslie's theory and facilitate the development of more effective self-control techniques. To support our argument, we examine Alcoholics Anonymous's method of temptation resistance known as "playing the tape through" (PTT).
我们认为,更仔细地观察人类用于支持意志力的实践和工具,以及它们所运用的文化背景,可以拓宽安斯利理论的适用性,并促进更有效的自我控制技术的发展。为了支持我们的论点,我们考察了匿名戒酒协会(Alcoholics Anonymous)称为“放电影”(PTT)的抵制诱惑方法。
