Abstract
Abstract Self-control is one of the most extensively studied topics in psychology and the resource or ego depletion model is one of the most popular. Although evidence supports some aspects of this model, other evidence is problematic for the notion that self-control is a limited resource. Herein, a new theory is proposed: the Dual Component Theory of Inhibition Regulation (DCTIR). The following paper will highlight key issues in self-control, describe the DCTIR, demonstrate how the DCTIR can account for the existing body of findings concerning limits to self-control, and provide novel predictions and avenues for further research.
