Editor: M. Mumford This study proposes a process model of the antecedents of both constructive and destructive leadership. As task difficulty increases, a leader's limited attentional resource capacity may become overwhelmed by the experience of high levels of negative emotions, resulting in selfregulation impairment and destructive leadership. When task difficulty is low, or when negative emot...

Depending upon the psychotherapist's orientation and the client's goals, meditation has beenused as a clinical intervention for selfregulation, self-exploration, and/or self-liberation. Most of meditation research to date, examining its self-regulation and self-exploration effects, has been based on an examination of short-term meditators (six to eight weeks, twenty to forty minutes a day). How...

Objectives: This study examined the dual mediating effects of parents’ smart media mediation(active mediation) and children’s self-regulation on relationship between intention to provide overdependence.Methods: Data were collected from 514 parents 5-year-old children who had previously used media. analyzed using descriptive statistics, partial correlations JASP. Structural equation model(SEM) a...

Purpose The present study attempted to establish the causal status between optimism and executive functioning (selfregulation). Repeated acts of self-control draw from a limited general resource which, upon depletion, results in reduced capacity for continued self-regulation, a process termed ego depletion (Baumeister, Bratslavsky, Muraven, & Tice, 1998). The present study investigated whether:...

This study provides a comparative analysis of undergraduate and graduate students’ academic motivation and selfregulation while learning online. Participants (N = 82) completed a survey that assessed several experiential, motivational, and self-regulatory factors. As hypothesized, graduate students reported higher levels of critical thinking than undergraduates. Moreover, after controlling for ...

A true human-level learner should be able to deliberately construct its own knowledge, its processes of reasoning resulting in a new knowledge, its system of values and goals, and the scenario of its cognitive growth. These capabilities require a cognitive architecture of a new kind that supports metacognition, self-awareness, and selfregulation. An example architecture design called Constructo...

It is assumed that the biological function of sleep is to compensate the limitation imposed by internal properties underlying the principle of chemical synaptic transmission (as high sensitivity to changes of ionic gradients, limited supplies of the mediator accessible to discharge, tendency toward synaptic depression etc.) and provide the reliability of the synaptic apparatus of CNS neural net...

Artificial emotional intelligence is vital for integration of future robots into the human society. This work introduces one possible approach to representation and processing of emotional mental states and attitudes (appraisals) in a cognitive architecture. The developed framework will allow for implementation of emotional intelligence in artifacts, including emotionally informed behavior and ...

Overregulation is one major obstacles to the free and innovative development of markets, even if these markets needed regulation after the privatization of a former monopolist. As a radical change of the regulatory regime could endanger it as a whole, the objective is to find a transitory regime which is limiting regulatory errors. One way is combining the regulatory instruments of sunsetregula...
