Staying on track: Planned goal striving is protected from disruptive internal states (2010, background): “Thus the critical cue is more easily detected, readily attended to, and successfully remembered (e.g., Aarts, Dijksterhuis, & Midden, 1999; Parks-Stamm, Gollwitzer, & Oettingen, 2007; Webb & Sheeran, 2004, 2006 ).”
Action control by implementation intentions : effective cue detection and efficient response initiation (2007, background): “Webb and Sheeran (2004) found this improvement in cue identification ensues without an increase in false positives (i.e., erroneously responding to similar cues).”
Using Mental Imagery to Enhance the Effectiveness of Implementation Intentions (2009, background): “This increased accessibility makes it easier to detect, attend to, and remember the critical cues when encountered later (for example, Aarts et al. 1999; Webb and Sheeran 2004).”
Effective regulation of affect: An action control perspective on emotion regulation (2012, background): “!) reported being better able to detect triggers of anxiety than participants who did not make a plan (see also, Webb & Sheeran, 2004; Wieber & Sassenberg, 2006).”
Self-regulation of consumer decision making and behavior: The role of implementation intentions (2009, unknown): “The heightened activation of the critical situation helps people to easily detect their moment for acting (e.g., Webb & Sheeran, 2004; Wieber & Sassen berg, 2006) even when attention is otherwise absorbed (Achtziger, Bayer, & Gollwitzer, 2009).”
Bridging the intention-behavior gap : Inducing implementation intentions through persuasive appeals (2011, unknown): “Second, in line with previous research investigating the cognitive processes underlying implementation intentions' effectiveness (e.g., Webb & Sheeran, 2004, 2007, 2008), one might argue that the cognitive accessibility effects demonstrated in (lab) Experiment 1, may mediate the impact of the type…”
From imagery to intention: A dual route model of imagined contact effects (2010, methodology): “They were asked to indicate how they felt about elderly people, in general, on six 7-point semantic-differential scales taken from Wright et al. (1997) (cold–warm, suspicious–trusting, positive– negative, friendly–hostile, respect–contempt, and admiration–disgust).”
Committing to implementation intentions: Attention and memory effects for selected situational cues (2012, background): “Webb and Sheeran (2004), Study 1 showed that implementation intentions increase the likelihood to detect a specified cue.”
The Interplay Between Goal Intentions and Implementation Intentions (2005, background): “The consequence is that these cues are detected swiftly and with precision (Aarts, Dijksterhuis, & Midden, 1999; Gollwitzer, Bayer, Steller, & Bargh, 2002; Webb & Sheeran, 2004).”
Weakness of the will: Is a quick fix possible? (2014, background): “For instance, Webb and Sheeran (2004) using a cue detection task observed that implementation intentions improved performance (fewer misses and more hits), without stimulating erroneous responses to similar cues (false alarms).”
Implementation intentions and goal achievement: A meta-analysis of effects and processes (2006, methodology): “For instance, Webb and Sheeran (2004) used a classic illusion paradigm from the psychology of language to investigate cue detection by goal intentions as compared to implementation intentions.”
Effects of an implementation intention-based intervention on fruit consumption (2007, result): “[3] Note that consistent with Sheeran et al.’s (2005) analysis, the potential moderating effects”
