Self-control is the ability to inhibit temptations and persist in one's decisions about what to do. In this article, we review recent evidence that suggests implicit beliefs about the process of self-control influence how the process operates. While earlier work focused on the moderating influence of willpower beliefs on depletion effects, we survey new directions in the field that emphasize how beliefs about the nature of self-control, self-control strategies, and their effectiveness have effects on downstream regulation and judgment. These new directions highlight the need to better understand the role of self-control beliefs in naturalistic decision-making.
自我控制是抑制诱惑和坚持自己对做什么的决定的能力。在本文中，我们回顾了最近的证据，这些证据表明，关于自我控制过程的内隐信念会影响这个过程的运作方式。虽然早期的研究侧重于意志力信念对消耗效应的调节作用，但我们调查了该领域的新方向，这些新方向强调了关于自我控制的本质、自我控制策略及其有效性的信念如何对下游的调节和判断产生影响。这些新方向突出表明需要更好地理解自我控制信念在自然决策中的作用。
