Inspired by some of current Western societies' most pressing problems, much research attention has been devoted to understanding self-regulation failure. While this has yielded some very valuable insights, the current paper underlines that understanding self-regulation failure does not mean that we also understand self-regulation success. Whereas failure and success are semantic antonyms, in terms of self-regulation research, they should not be regarded as mere opposites. First, on the process level, self-regulation success versus failure is not simply a matter of inverse explanatory factors (e.g., the capacity to inhibit impulses vs. a lack thereof). Second, on the outcome level, self-regulation success versus failure is not strictly a matter of inverse behavioral action (e.g., abstaining from versus indulging in immediate gratification). This has significant implications, the most important one being that to understand self-regulation success, researchers need to take a more holistic perspective rather than mainly considering single instances when studying self-regulation.

为什么自我调节成功不是失败的对立面

受当前西方社会一些最紧迫的问题的启发,许多研究注意力都集中在理解自我调节失败上。尽管这产生了一些非常有价值的见解,但当前的论文强调指出,了解自我调节失败并不意味着我们也了解自我调节成功。尽管失败和成功是语义上的反义词,但就自我调节研究而言,它们不应被视为对立。首先,在过程水平上,自我调节的成功与失败不只是解释性因素的反问题(例如,抑制冲动的能力与缺乏冲动的能力)。其次,在结果水平上,自我调节的成功与失败并非严格地取决于行为的逆向行为(例如,放弃或沉迷于立即满足)。
