SUMMARY:Unifying the Scientific Concept of Self-Control: Self-Control as Task Hacking

DESCRIPTION:<p>Abstract:&nbsp\;&nbsp\;There are two apparently irreconcilable aspects of the scientific concept of self-control: the moment-to-moment&nbsp\;state&nbsp\;self-control and the stable&nbsp\;trait&nbsp\;of self-control. Deploying state self-control requires exerting cognitive effort\, whereas the latter is linked with long-term wellbeing benefits but seems unrelated to cognitive effort. Are these two scientific constructs measuring the same thing? Or do they refer to different psychological phenomena? In this talk I propose the task-hacking view of self-control\, which seeks to harmonize both aspects of the concept\, make sense of the empirical literature\, and help move the scientific study of self-control forward.</p>
