Regulatory Fit and Persuasion: Basic Principles and Remaining Questions (2008, background): “Having a high strength of engagement, or motivational strength, is associated with commitment to the goal in the face of obstacles ( Freitas, Liberman, & Higgins, 2002; Higgins, 2006).”
Leadership style and regulatory mode: Value from fit? (2006, background): “Indeed, research has found that people enjoy activities more and are more motivated to perform them (Freitas & Higgins, 2002; Freitas, Liberman, & Higgins, 2002 ) when there is a perceived “Wt” between their regulatory mode (locomotion or assessment) and the strategies used to motivate them.”
Value from hedonic experience and engagement. (2006, background): “In a separate study Freitas, Liberman, and Higgins (2002) manipulated regulatory focus by having participants write about either their personal hopes or aspirations (promotion/ideal priming) or their personal duties and obligations (prevention/ought priming).”
Be Fit and Be Strong: Mastering Self‐Regulation through Regulatory Fit (2008, background): “This finding is important because it has been shown that a prevention focus is associated with better selfcontrol than a promotion focus (Freitas et al. 2002).”
The substitutability of external control and self-control (2005, background): “There is also research showing that in response to such temptations, people may engage in self-control efforts designed to protect their long-term interests (Ariely & Wertenbroch, 2002; Aspinwall & Taylor, 1997; Fishbach, Friedman, & Kruglanski, 2003; Freitas, Liberman, & Higgins, 2002; Gollwitzer”
Bringing ethics into focus: How regulatory focus and risk preferences influence (Un)ethical behavior (2011, methodology): “We manipulated regulatory focus using a procedure developed by Friedman and Förster (2001) and used in various studies to activate promotion versus prevention focus (see e.”
The Impact of Regulatory Focus on Adolescents’ Response to Antismoking Advertising Campaigns (2007, methodology): “EXPERIMENT 2: PRIMING OF REGULATORY FOCUS Following much previous research (Freitas, Liberman, and Higgins 2002; Lockwood, Jordon, and Kunda 2002; Pham and Avnet 2004; Wang and Lee 2006), we used a priming manipulation that was independent of the focal message.”
Group-based self-regulation: The effects of regulatory focus (2008, result): “The empirical support for these predictions is as impressive as the support for regulatory focus and self-discrepancy theory (eg, Camacho, Higgins, & Luger, 2003 ; Freitas, Liberman, & Higgins, 2002 ; Lee & Aaker, 2004 ; Semin et al, 2005 ).”
A new look at habits and the habit-goal interface. (2007, background): “An avoidance strategy is especially suited to inhibition given that it involves monitoring for exposure to triggering cues, vigilant control to ensure that the response is not elicited, and focus on the negative outcomes of performing a habitual response (see Fo ¨rster, Higgins, & Bianco, 2003; Fre”
