The article provides information on a study that develops and refines aspects of the construct of self-control according to a four-quadrant model: assertive-positive, assertive-negative, yielding-positive, and yielding-negative. Recently, the concept of behavioral medicine has achieved prominence, and the applications of self-control procedures to medical settings have received increased attention. Recent studies have been unable to differentiate between the clinical effectiveness of various self-control strategies for a particular clinical problem. In this study, 26 men and 78 women evaluated areas of their life in terms of the perceived degree to which they utilized these various dimensions of control. The results of this study indicates that, depending on the specific area of clinical concern, there are significant differences in the kinds of self-control strategies that subjects tended to employ. It has been noted that while subjects in this sample exercised a high degree of assertive-positive control in their professional lives, in the interpersonal and affective spheres they perceived themselves to be more out of control and exercising more negative-assertive control. |
