Regulatory focus, ripeness and optimality dynamics
Overview: This research investigates the dynamic relationship between different modes of regulatory focus and social conflict across time. It builds on prior research in the area, but extends it by examining the combined effects of prevention and promotion orientations on experiences of conflict, and then employs a method for studying how the ratios of promotion-to-prevention orientation shift across time to influence these experiences.Publications from this project
