Accomplishing goals with others can be troublesome. Some people may work extra hard while others do much less. When does this workload asymmetry occur? The present research investigates the role of perceived partners’ self‐control in workload distribution. Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that high self‐control individuals work harder and compensate when they work together with low self‐control partners. Results from two studies indicate that high self‐control individuals are sensitive to their partners’ level of self‐control and adjust their behavior accordingly (i.e., exerting extra effort) when working with them.

谁负责大部分工作？自我控制力强的人补偿自我控制力低下的伙伴

与他人达成目标可能很麻烦。有些人可能会加倍努力，而另一些人却会少得多。什么时候会出现这种工作量不对称？本研究调查了感知伙伴的自我控制在工作量分配中的作用。具体而言，我们检验了以下假设：自我控制能力强的人与低自我控制能力的伙伴一起工作时会更加努力并获得补偿。两项研究的结果表明，自我控制能力强的人对伴侣的自我控制能力很敏感，并在与他们一起工作时相应地调整了自己的行为（即，付出了额外的努力）。
