What You Need to Know About Willpower
What You Need to Know about Willpower: The Psychological Science of Self-Control explores the leading research into the nature and consequences of people's ability to exert self-control. The willpower report is accompanied by a survey report on Americans' goals for the New Year and their perceptions of willpower. Both the willpower report and survey are part of APA's Mind/Body Health campaign, educating the public about behavioral science, the connection between psychological and physical health, and how lifestyle and behaviors can affect overall health and wellness.
More information on willpower can be found in the This is Psychology: Willpower video, part of the "This Is Psychology" video series.
