Wiki Version:
Participants completed a measure of goal disengagement capacity along with several indicators of self-regulatory skill. Goal disengagement capacity was negatively correlated with measures of self-regulation. Participants also provided information about whether and why they had let go of goals both mundane (e.g., walking out of a movie) and consequential (e.g., leaving an academic program early). Though skilled self-regulators were less likely to disengage from goals, they disengaged for different reasons than their unskilled counterparts. Skilled self-regulators seem to quit goals that no longer serve them, rather than goals that they feel are challenging, unenjoyable, or boring.
