• The Future and the Will: Planning requires self-control, and ego depletion leads to planning aversion (2018, background): “Building on William James's (1890) much-quoted assertion that “thinking is for doing,” Baumeister et al. (2016) proposed an alternative view.”
• The “Other” Time: A Review of the Subjective Experience of Time in Organizations (2020, background): “…others’ discoveries if literature searches and meta-analyses fail to detect similar mechanisms housed in different literatures (e.g., “projection”, Dahm et al., 2019; Carlsen, 2006; Ravasi & Schultz, 2006; versus “prospection”, Baumeister et al. 2016; Lord et al. 2015; Miettinen & Virkkunen, 2005).”
