Abstract
This paper reviews prior work on the link between psychological preparedness and anticipatory response tendencies. First, the literature suggests that psychological preparedness is associated with a wide range of anticipatory response tendencies while, at the same time, suggesting several key moderators and a motivational component of preparedness. Second, it also suggests that there are several different forms and means of psychological preparedness. In particular, it suggests that different anticipatory response tendencies (e.g., implementation intentions) are the means employed to create different forms of psychological preparedness (e.g., action readiness). Finally, rather than fundamentally different variables, the literature suggests that the different forms and means of preparedness work together across different life (anticipated transitions versus routine life) contexts to optimize the same overall variable of psychological preparedness.
