Self-control training (SCT) is a method of practicing self-controlled behavior in one domain that enhances self-controlled behavior in additional domains. We investigated whether 4 and 12 weeks of practicing self-control would improve control over aggressive behavior. Relative to the active control group, SCT did not reduce aggression regardless of the training duration. We also did not find supportive evidence to suggest that theoretically relevant variables mediated or moderated the effects of SCT on aggression over time. Bayesian analyses showed greater support for the null hypotheses than the alternative hypothesis. Our experiment casts doubt on the long-term effectiveness of using SCT for reducing reactive aggression. Additional research is necessary to identify the conditions under which SCT is most likely to facilitate control over aggressive behavior.
自我控制训练（SCT）是一种在一个领域中练习自我控制行为的方法，它可以增强在其他领域的自我控制行为。我们研究了 4 周和 12 周的自我控制训练是否会改善对攻击行为的控制。相对于主动控制组，无论训练时间长短，SCT 都不能减少攻击行为。我们也没有发现支持性证据表明，理论上相关的变量会在时间上调节或中介 SCT 对攻击行为的影响。贝叶斯分析显示，对零假设的支持程度大于对替代假设的支持程度。我们的实验对使用 SCT 来减少反应性攻击的长期有效性提出了质疑。需要进一步的研究来确定 SCT 在最有可能促进对攻击行为的控制的条件下的应用。
