The present study explored this seeming paradox within the context of limitations or constraints due to aging, low cognitive resources, and daily stress in ...

Paul R. Pintrich was a leading figure in the field of self-regulated learning. This article discusses some of Paul’s major contributions: (a) formulating a conceptual framework for studying self-regulated learning comprising phases (forethought, planning, activation; monitoring; control; reaction, reflection) and areas for self-regulation (cognition, motivation, behavior, context); (b) emphasiz...

Long-term health behavior maintenance remains a challenge for patients and health behavior interventionists. Resource-intensive systems of external reinforcement and behavioral cues can support behavior maintenance; an alternative approach is to promote patient internalization and self-regulation of health behaviors. Based in part on organismic internalization theory, self-determination theory,...
