Thwarting the Need to Belong: Understanding the Interpersonal and Inner Effects of Social Exclusion (2007, background): “Williams’s (2001) interviews and surveys found that ostracized people reported considerable distress in connection with being ostracized, and in fact he noted that he himself had such unpleasant emotional reactions that he could scarcely bring himself to conduct the interviews or even observe his ow”
Ego depletion and the strength model of self-control: a meta-analysis. (2010, background): “…measures include subjective ratings of a target person, with responses analyzed for prejudiced or aggressive responses (e.g., Muraven, 2008b; Stucke & Baumeister, 2006), or self-reported evaluations that require suppression of well-learned tendencies, such as being modest and self-effacing…”
Self-control inhibits aggression. (2011, background): “A recent series of studies filled this gap in this literature by providing causal evidence that self-control failure increases aggression toward strangers (DeWall, Baumeister, Stillman, & Gailliot, 2007; also see Stucke & Baumeister, 2006).”
What Is Ego Depletion? Toward a Mechanistic Revision of the Resource Model of Self-Control (2012, background): “In one study, resisting (versus not resisting) tempting foods during the first phase of the experiment made participants more likely to denigrate an insulter’s competence during the second phase of the experiment (Stucke & Baumeister, 2006).”
Self-control relies on glucose as a limited energy source: willpower is more than a metaphor.

Predictive Validity of IAT Aggressiveness in the Context of Provocation (2010, background): “Stucke & Baumeister, 2006 ), individual differences in implicit aggressiveness enter into play to”
My Family Made Me Do It: A Cross-Domain, Self-Regulatory Perspective on Antecedents to Abusive Supervision (2016, background): “…2011), theorists have argued that the most proximal cause of interpersonal aggression is the depletion of self-regulatory resources that otherwise prevent aggressive impulses from translating into actual aggression (Hagger, Wood, Stiff, & Chatzisarantis, 2010; Stucke & Baumeister, 2006).”
Conservation of Resources in the Organizational Context: The Reality of Resources and Their Consequences (2018, background): “In effect, they argue that holding back the impulse to respond abusively to an underperforming employee requires self-regulatory resources (cf., DeWall et al. 2007, Stucke & Baumeister 2006).”
De‐investment in work and non‐normative personality trait change in young adulthood (2006, background): “This continuous call for self-regulation at work may lead to ego depletion (Baumeister, Bratlavsky, Muraven, & Tice, 1998), which in turn is associated with increases in aggressive behaviour in people with aggressive tendencies ( Stucke & Baumeister, 2006 ).”
Self-regulation and personality: how interventions increase regulatory success, and how depletion moderates the effects of traits on behavior. (2006, background): “…(Schmeichel, Vohs, & Baumeister, 2003), more prone to spend money impulsively (Vohs & Faber, 2004), show higher levels of aggressive responding (Stucke & Baumeister, 2006), drink more alcohol even when anticipating a driving test (Muraven, Collins, & Nienhaus, 2002), perform inappropriate or…”
The strength model of self-regulation failure and health-related behaviour (2009, background): “Studies have demonstrated that people induced to eat unappetising foods show depleted self-regulatory capacity on subsequent self-control tasks (Baumeister et al, 1998 ; DeWall et al, 2007 ; Geeraert & Yzerbyt, 2007 ; Muraven et al, 2006 ; Segerstrom & Nes, 2007 ; Stucke & Baumeister, 2006 ).”
Restoring the self: Positive affect helps improve self-regulation following ego depletion (2007, background): “The resulting low-resource state of ego depletion can increase proneness to a variety of maladaptive behaviors, ranging from alcohol abuse to aggression (Muraven, Collins, & Nienhaus, 2002; Muraven, Collins, ShiVman, & Paty, 2005; Stucke & Baumeister, 2006 ).”
Episodes of incivility between subordinates and supervisors: Examining the role of self‐control and time with an interaction‐record diary study. (2015, background): “36, 1096–1113 (2015) DOI: 10.1002/job research indicates that negative affect cannot explain the effects of depleted self-regulatory capacities (e.g., Stucke & Baumeister, 2006), we wanted to rule out this alternative explanation.”
Is There a Downside to Good Self-control? (2009, background): “Interpersonally, those with lowered self-regulatory resources are more likely than their non-depleted peers to respond aggressively to provocation (DeWall, Baumeister, Stillman, & Gailliot, 2007 ; Stucke & Baumeister, 2006 ), to present themselves in ways that fail to make the desired or optimal i”
The depleted leader: The influence of leaders' diminished psychological resources on leadership behaviors ☆ ☆☆ (2014, background): “Self-control has indeed been shown to be a limited resource that can becomedepleted (i.e. Baumeister et al., 1998; Hedgcock, Vohs, & Rao, 2012), resulting in increased aggressive responses (Stucke & Baumeister, 2006) and destructive forms of conflict resolution (Finkel & Campbell, 2001).”
An opportunity cost model of subjective effort and task performance (2013, unknown): “Indeed, consistent with this type of interpretation, DeWall et al. (2007), for example, reported that participants behaved more aggressively after performing a self-control task (see also Stucke & Baumeister 2006).”
