Self-control (resistance to temptation)
o accomplish the higher priority goals, individuals need to resist the momentarily salient yet lower priority temptations with which the more important goals are in conflict. Our analysis, then, assumes that temptations are defined within a given situation and with respect to the longer term goals at hand. For instance, a desire to go on a relaxing vacation is legitimate on some occasions but should be withheld on other times, when important deadlines at work are approaching. The relativity of goals within goal systems has some important implications for the nature of self-control, which, to be effective, should facilitate the pursuit of dynamic motivational states.”
There is, as the saying goes, often a price for success: In striving to attain our long-term dreams and ambitions, we often must forgo momentary pleasures and amusements. Psychologists have long recognized that these little sacrifices typically are not easy, as the lure of momentary temptations can be pervasive. How do we stay the course and finish a long paper when we could be watching must-see TV? How do we forgo a dinner with friends to stick with our workout schedule? As these examples demonstrate, everyday choice and behavior often involve a struggle between opposite behavioral tendencies. Whereas all goals represent desirable end states that individuals would ordinarily wish to approach, many important, long-term goals require that individuals give up other, relatively lower priority pursuits that might otherwise hinder the attainment of these enduring goals. We label such obstacles temptations, and, in line with previous conceptualizations, in the present analysis we assume that people come to avoid temptations and approach overarching goals through the processes of self-control Fishbach, Ayelet, Shah, James Y(2010 ).

A simple stylized example illustrates both points
and serves to fix ideas for purposes of the argument to come. Imagine that a population of ten million persons faces a one in five chance of an epidemic outbreak of an infectious disease. If an epidemic occurs and nothing is done to combat the disease, two-anda- half million persons will eventually become infected. Suppose further that the disease may be contained in two ways. First, quarantining the first one million persons who are exposed will protect the remaining nine million from exposure, although at a cost: 650 thousand of the quarantined persons will contract the disease;'^ and all one million will bear the urdens of confinement, which are l/lO the burden of suffering the disease. Second, vaccinating the entire population in advance of any outbreak can prevent infections entirely, although the vaccinations are themselves burdensome. They are expensive and painful and, more importantly, involve significant medical side effects. The per-person burden of vaccination is 1/40 as bad as suffering the actual disease.

Honesty (not cheating on a test)
Unfortunately, academic dishonesty in college is widespread. Though the percentage of undergraduate students reporting that they have cheated at least once during their college careers has remained consistent at about 80% over 30 years, the severity of cheating (e.g., percentages of students engaging in more "serious" cheating such as exam cheating) has increased substantially (Bowers, 1964; Brown & Emmett, 2001; McCabe & Klebe-Trevino, 1997; Spiller & Crown, 1995). In a recent study, Carpenter, Harding, Finelli, Montgomery, and Passow (2006) found that more than 96% of the engineering students reported engaging in at least one behavior they defined as either cheating or unethical while in college. It is not that these students did not understand what cheating was or even had difficulty establishing what behaviors were ethical; rather, the vast majority of students participating in the study were willing to engage in a behavior they recognized and defined as ethically wrong.

causes them to become insensitive to or tolerant of low-level ethical violations. They
begin to feel they are doing what everyone else is doing, blaming others for their own

Ability to develop intimate friendships (hope of having a lasting marriage)
In the “State of Our Unions” project report (Whitehead & Popenoe, 2006), teens were
asked about their beliefs concerning marriage, family, and monogamy. The results suggested
that the great majority of them do want to get married some day and feel that marriage and
family life is “extremely important” (82% for females, and 70% for males). However, only 63%
8 of adolescent females and 57% of adolescent males think it is very likely that they will stay
married to the same person for their whole lives. Even more disturbing is the fact that only 32%
of high school senior females and 38% of high school senior males stated that they “agreed or
mostly agreed that most people will have fuller and happier lives is they choose legal marriage
rather than staying single or just living with someone” (Whitehead & Popenoe, 2006). Gutierrez, Lorinda A. (2007).

Friendship will motivate one to cross the room one day and say, "I'm sorry; I didn't mean that." It will not pretend perfection nor demand it. It will not insist that both respond exactly the same in every thought and feeling, but it will bring to the union honesty, integrity.

Turn About
Students of ‘interview’ behavior, and such two-arty conversation as approximates it in form, have concerned theselves with the distribution of talk among the parties, the distribution of silences, the sequences in which the talk shifted from one to another or was rtained by a single party, and the way such transfer or retention was coordinated.

This is an organization of practices designed to allow routine achievement of what appears to be overwhelmingly the most common default “numerical” value of speakership in talk-in-interaction: one party talking at a time. This is a matter not so much of politeness as of the constitutive features of commonplace talk-in-interaction, as an enabling institution for orderly commerce between people. Schegloff, Emanuel A.

Sharing/Giving

the benefit of others. In situations in which
limited resources are to be shared, interests
of the self and others are placed in direct

explained that she would show slides of pairs of pictures, and that the subject was to indicate with a pointer which of the two forms on each slide was the larger. She further explained that each correct answer would be rewarded with a token, that the tokens would be exchanged later for a prize, and that the more tokens one had, the better the prize would be. Thus, choosing the correct form was presented as the primary task at hand. Every child viewed eight slides, earned eight tokens, was directed to sign her name on a sheet of paper (this operation serving only to allow the experimenter time to depart from the trailer in the no surveillance condition), and to share or not share, as she chose. The child was also instructed to go into the back room when she finished, where the assistant would exchange her tokens and escort her back to the classroom. The sharing opportunity was always presented by the experimenter giving the following permissive instruction: But before you trade your tokens, you might want to put some of them into this can for
children at another school who won't have the chance to earn tokens. If the children are given enough tokens, we'll give them some prizes, too, but you don't have to give any if you don't want to.

Handle conflict with others (art of compromising in situations)
Compromising (assertiveness and cooperativeness).
A compromising person finds a mutually acceptable solution that is agreeable to both parties.

We defined conflict ending as the point at which the parents stopped interacting at the current time, and so parents' reports reflected discrete episodes rather than a general atmosphere in the home. Both fathers and mothers completed the home reports, but for ease of presentation, and because responses and the pattern of results were generally quite consistent across reporters (see Cummings et al., 2003), mothers' records are used exclusively in the current report.
Using a checklist format, mothers indicated (i.e., endorsed or did not endorse) what they and their spouses did to end each conflict interaction, including apologize, compromise, give in, agree to disagree, and withdraw. Mothers also rated the degree of their own and their spouses' angry, sad, fearful, and positive emotional expression, on 10-point scales ranging from 0 (none) to 9 (high). Their ratings of their emotions and behaviors during conflicts, which are described elsewhere (Cummings et al., 2003), were also included for selected analyses reported below. Mothers also rated the extent to which the problem was worked out, on a 10-point scale from 0 (none) to 9 (high).

These point to all manner of connections and contacts between the two parties. Relations developed haphazardly and were unstructured. No set procedures regarding the transmission of information from policemen to journalists, and no routine system of briefing or press
officers existed in the period under review. The evidence shows, however, that these links gradually became more intensive, albeit not always congenial, as will be discussed below.
Required to be in the proximity of law enforcers who would feed them nformation, insights and good stories, journalists gradually developed a wide range of contacts with detectives. Some links were occasional and ad hoc, while others were long-standing. A small number of top journalists enjoyed social connections with leading politicians and senior officials, including those working for the police, whom they met in gentlemen’s clubs and other social venues and could tap for information The article examines the relationship between police detectives and journalists during the Victorian and Edwardian periods in England, particularly London. Topics include how both occupations evolved during the period, their struggle for respectability and recognition, the mutually-dependent relationship between journalists and detectives, negotiations on how police work would be reported in the press, frictions between the two professions, and how journalists assisted police or reacted to their lack of cooperation.

Emotional Self-Regulation
Of these, emotional self-regulation is one of the most crucial. It reflects the ability to initiate behavioral and emotional changes during emotionally charged situations in order to meet goals and manage arousal and predicts current and later adjustment Dennis, Tracy (2010).

We add to existing research by examining emotional performance in job roles that require either the expression of positive emotions (e.g., customer service) or the expression of negative emotions (e.g., bill collection). We also extend existing emotional labor research by including a physiological measure (i.e., heart rate) in our study, allowing us to examine both the effects of emotional performance on individuals' reports of experienced stress and exhaustion and their cardiac responses to emotional performance. Although some existing laboratory research has linked emotional regulation to cardiac arousal, the role of personality in cardiac responses to emotional regulation has not been examined. Indeed, the use of physiological stress measures in organizational research has been criticized for ignoring both stable factors (e.g., personality traits) and transitory influences (e.g., emotional regulation demands; see Fried, Rowland, & Ferris, 1984). Because the link between stress and heart rate reported in the literature is modest (Blascovich & Tomaka, 1996, for a review) and the cardiac system is responsive to both challenges and threats (Blascovich, Mendes, Hunter, & Salomon, 1999), we include heart rate in our study on an exploratory basis.
