Self-control over time: Implications for work, relationship, and well-being outcomes

Exploring the Role of Self-Control on Student Procrastination

“…l counties in Texas, Diamond, Jennings, and Piquero (2017) control was associated with violent crime, property crime, and unemployment, especially in rural control such impulsive and unhealthy behavior, linked with unemployment. Converse, Beverage, Vaghef, and Moore, (2018) confirm the influence of self-control on work. It could predict not only work but also relationship issue and well-being in adolescent and young adult.…”

The Co-Development of Chores and Effortful Control among Mexican-Origin Youth and Prospective Work Outcomes

“…We know that people's self-regulation levels are malleable and change across time, and many intervention programs aimed at children and teens hope to boost self-regulation to improve future work outcomes. However, apart from only two studies (Allemand et al, 2018;Converse et al, 2018), there is no empirical research investigating the role of self-regulation change trajectories in predicting later work outcomes over and above initial levels of selfregulation. Of these two studies, the first investigated the role of self-control development from age 16 to 29 on work outcomes at age 29, and work outcomes included job satisfaction and income (Converse et al, 2018).…”

The second study investigated the role of self-control development from age 12 to 16 on work outcomes at age 35, and the work outcomes included occupational self-efficacy beliefs, achievement motivation, and willingness to further training and development (Allemand et al, 2018).…”

“…Specifically, both studies used self-reports only to assess self-control, and they called for future studies to use a multi-method approach, where self-regulatory traits are assessed using both self-and informant-reports to boost their validity. Moreover, intelligence was also self-reported in one of the studies (Allemand et al, 2018), parental socio-economic status was missing from the other study (Converse et al, 2018), and the types of work outcomes assessed across the two studies were limited to job satisfaction and work engagement. Finally, the age range covered only included adolescence, but not late childhood, which is an important omission because self-regulation intervention programs supported by policymakers focus on childhood intervention (Cavadel et al, 2017;Heckman, 2012;Murray et al, 2016).…”
