I am an educational psychologist, and I study self-regulation. This text was chosen as my contribution because it represents a cross-section of research in self-regulation. As an educational psychologist my work, by definition, addresses a cross-section of issues in psychology and education as well as research and practice. This text was a representative sample of the thinking that guided my research during my pre-tenure years. This piece also represents the benefits of research at the cross roads of psychology and practice both domestically and abroad. It is an excellent reference for both research and applied psychologists.
