'This handbook captures both the breadth and depth of the field, offering valuable and integrative chapters that illustrate how people regulate their thoughts, emotions, and actions - and, as well, how these processes of self-regulation break down.' - Daniel M. Wegner, PhD, Harvard University, USA
'Baumeister and Vohs have assembled an impressive ‘who's who' of researchers... The Handbook gives equal attention to basic theory and practical applications, speaking to questions ranging from the nature of the self to the ways we control sexual behavior, eating, and alcohol use. This volume is a basic and necessary resource for anyone who plans to do research on self-regulation or who wishes to understand the current state of knowledge.' - David Funder, PhD, University of California, Riverside, USA
'The most complete work to date on social-cognitive theories of self-regulation. Chapters present innovative research on such topics as intentions, self-control, and coping, within specific theoretical frameworks that can be compared and contrasted. Moreover, the Handbook is unique in its emphasis on linkages among social-cognitive research and developmental, neurological, and clinical phenomena.' - Richard Ryan, PhD, University of Rochester, USA
Bringing together a stellar array of self-regulation researchers, this comprehensive and authoritative "Handbook" addresses the breadth of current theories, findings, and practical applications in the field. Examined are the conscious and nonconscious processes by which people regulate their thoughts, emotions, attention, impulses or appetites, and task performances; the developmental trajectories of these capacities; and implications for personal relationships, addictions, consumption, and mental health. The ways individuals differ in their basic abilities and styles of self-control are considered, as are strategies for enhancing functioning in this area. Offering cutting-edge coverage of a key dimension of human experience, the "Handbook" also identifies important questions for future investigation.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: From leading authorities, this significantly revised and expanded handbook is a highly regarded reference in a rapidly growing field. It thoroughly examines the conscious and unconscious processes by which people manage their behavior and emotions, control impulses, and strive toward desired goals. Chapters explore such vital issues as why certain individuals have better self-control than others; how self-regulation shapes, and is shaped by, social relationships; underlying brain mechanisms and developmental pathways; and which interventions can improve people's self-control. The volume also addresses self-regulatory failures and their consequences, with chapters on attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, criminality, addictions, and money management challenges.(Publisher).
