Description: This research examines how both users’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to use mobile communication influence the processes that lead to failures in exercising self-control. More precisely, based on a diary study, it investigates how relatedness frustration (i.e., intrinsic motivation) and availability pressure (i.e., extrinsic motivation) influence automatic messenger use (i.e., automatic process) and anticipated guilt (i.e., conscious process)—and how these processes relate to self-control failure.
