Abstract:

We argue that individuals monitor and evaluate attainment and maintenance goals differently. Attainment goalsfeature a salient current-end state discrepancy that is processed more than the corresponding match for maintenancegoals. For maintenance goals, for which a salient discrepancy is absent, contextual influences on goalsuccess/failure receive more processing than for attainment goals. Thus, objectively more difficult attainmentgoals may be judged as easier than maintenance goals, when they feature sufficiently small discrepancies, orwhen context information is unfavorable.

Abstract:

We examined relationships among goal attributes (difficulty and affective value) and goal types (mastery, performance, intrinsic, and extrinsic). Goal attributes of positive affect value and relative salience of positive value were higher for intrinsic goals, mastery goals, and more difficult goals, qualified by an interaction between difficulty and type of goal. Intrinsic goals were more affectively positive than extrinsic goals and mastery goals were more positive than performance goals, but these differences vanished if goals were also perceived as difficult. Results were consistent with go

Abstract:

Prior research suggests that people’s behaviour and perception can be strongly biased by their current goals. This can occur without people being necessarily consciously aware of that. This idea implies that at least some information would have to be preconsciously processed to a specific degree, in order for the brain to decide what is goal-relevant and what is not. With this theory in mind, I investigated whether motivation could exert a top-down influence on what type of information would enter conscious awareness first and in particular, whether goal-related information would have consciou

Abstract:

Self-Determination Theory (SDT) research on goal pursuit indicates that people with intrinsic goal pursuits experience greater well-being than those with extrinsic goal pursuits. Three nutriments have been suggested by SDT that facilitate intrinsic motivation: autonomy, competence and relatedness. These nutriments, considered social conditions by SDT, have been understudied. However, recent SDT research and the small literature on goal support in relationships suggest that social aspects of goal pursuit are quite relevant and warrant further investigation. This study examined interpersonal

Abstract:

The overarching aim of this thesis is to study features of goal motivation and the self-regulation of personal goals which have been implicated in the development and maintenance of depression (Trew, 2011; Van de Elzen & Macleod, 2006; Wrosch, Scheier, Carver and Schulz, 2003). This thesis consists of two main chapters: a narrative literature review and an empirical paper. Each chapter, together with how they are linked is outlined in this introductory chapter.

Abstract:

Goal setting is proven to affect the choices and focus of the employees towards certain tasks, therefore it has been suggested for ensuring that sufficient focus and attentions is direct towards explorative activities (Lund & Magnusson, 2015), which are otherwise at risk of being down prioritized (Levinthal & March, 1993). Such effects of goal setting can though not be expected in situations where there is low commitment to the goal program (Latham, 2004). A factor which is important for increasing the goal commitment, is having clear rationales for the goals set. However, because ther

Abstract:

One of the gnarliest challenges in reinforcement learning (RL) is exploration that scales to vast domains, where novelty-, or coverage-seeking behaviour falls short. Goal-directed, purposeful behaviours are able to overcome this, but rely on a good goal space. The core challenge in goal discovery is finding the right balance between generality (not hand-crafted) and tractability (useful, not too many). Our approach explicitly seeks the middle ground, enabling the human designer to specify a vast but meaningful proto-goal space, and an autonomous discovery process to refine this to a narrower s
