Are self-injurers impulsive?: Results from two behavioral laboratory studies.
Common clinical wisdom suggests that people who engage in self-injury are impulsive. However, virtually all prior work in this area has relied on individuals' self-report of impulsiveness, despite evidence that people are limited in their ability to accurately report on cognitive processes that occur outside awareness. To address this knowledge gap, we used performance-based measures of several...

متن کاملPain analgesia among adolescent self-injurers.
Although non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) involves self-inflicted physical harm, many self-injurers report feeling little or no pain during the act. Here we test: (1) whether the pain analgesia effects observed among adult self-injurers are also present among adolescents, and (2) three potential explanatory models proposing that habituation, dissociation, and/or self-criticism help explain the a...
متن کاملExpectations are more predictive of behavior than behavioral intentions: evidence from two prospective studies.
BACKGROUND Understanding the gap between people's behavioral intentions and their subsequent behavior is a key problem for behavioral scientists, but little attention has been paid to how behavioral intentions are operationalized. PURPOSE Test the distinction between asking people what they intend to do, as opposed to what they expect they will do. METHODS Two studies were conducted in the ...
متن کاملNonsuicidal self-injury: relationship to behavioral and self-rating measures of impulsivity and self-aggression.
Previous research using self-report measures has shown an association between nonsuicidal self-injurious behavior (NSSI) and impulsive tendencies. However, self-injurers have not been shown to be different from comparison groups on laboratory tasks putatively assessing impulsive behavior. One explanation for these contradictory findings is that self-report and laboratory measures of impulsive b...
