Abstract

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic poses unique opportunities to explore how fundamental self-regulatory variables affect responses to the pandemic. We examine how two critical self-regulatory orientations, locomotion and assessment, relate to psychological distress and obeying public health guidelines using secondary data analysis. In the initial pandemic stages (April and May, 2020), North American participants (N = 924) completed measures of chronic locomotion and assessment, pandemic behaviors and feelings, and various individual-differences. Analyses revealed that assessment, but not locomotion, was indirectly associated with greater pandemic rule-breaking and psychological distress through the fear of missing out, difficulty engaging in activities, and engagement in negative activities. We discuss why the vulnerabilities of assessment, and not locomotion, may be particularly sensitive to pandemic-related constraints.

压力之下:COVID-19大流行中的运动与评估

COVID-19大流行为探索基本自我调节变量如何影响对大流行的反应提供了独特的机会。我们研究了两个关键的自我调节取向，运动和评估，如何与心理困扰和遵守公共卫生指南有关，使用二手数据分析。在大流行的初始阶段(2020年4月和5月)，北美参与者(N = 924)完成了慢性运动和评估、大流行行为和感受以及各种个体差异的测量。分析显示，评估(而非运动)与更大的流行病违规行为和心理困扰(害怕错过、难以参与活动和参与负面活动)间接相关。我们讨论了为什么评估的脆弱性，而不是运动，可能对与大流行有关的限制特别敏感。

期刊介绍： Work on self and identity has a special place in the study of human nature, as self-concerns are arguably at the center of individuals" striving for well-being and for making sense of one"s life. Life goals develop and are influenced by one"s view of what one is like, the way one would ideally like to be (or would like to avoid being), as well as one"s perceptions of what is feasible. Furthermore, conceptions of self and the world affect how one"s progress towards these goals is monitored, evaluated, redirected, re-evaluated, and pursued again. Thus, the “self” as a construct has far-reaching implications for behavior, self-esteem, motivation, experience of emotions and the world more broadly, and hence for interpersonal relationships, society, and culture.
