• Archive: This authoritative handbook comprehensively examines the conscious and nonconscious processes by which people regulate their thoughts, emotions, attention, behavior, and impulses.
• Individual differences in self-regulatory capacities are explored, as are developmental pathways.
• The volume reviews how self-regulation shapes, and is shaped by, social relationships.
• Failures of self-regulation are also addressed, in chapters on addictions, overeating, compulsive spending, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
• Wherever possible, contributors identify implications of the research for helping people enhance their self-regulatory capacities and pursue desired goals.
