In the present research proposal, self-control, defined as the capacity to override momentary impulses in favor of long-term goal pursuit and mindfulness, defined as the ability to pay attention to the present moment in a non-judgmental way, are contrasted as two alternative approaches to self-regulation with regard to proximal and distal outcomes. Motivational interference refers to the negative impact that conflicting action alternatives have on current experience and performance and reflects proximal destabilizations in self-regulation. Distal outcomes of self-regulation are investigated with regard academic achievement, interest development, leisure functioning and general well-being.It is proposed that self-control has a discriminating, judgmental function and therefore fosters self-regulation especially in achievement-oriented settings and with regard to goal achievement. On the other side, mindfulness is assumed to have a more fundamental function that builds on self-insight and therefore fosters self-regulation and well-being in various domains.Three studies are proposed, all of them using so-called intensive longitudinal methods (ILM, cf. Bolger & Laurenceau, 2013). In ILM, participants provide sequences of repeated measurements over one week or several months, allowing one to characterize naturally occurring change processes in everyday life and separate change processes for each subject. Thereby, ILM combines the advantages of high ecological validity and the possibility to investigate within-person change processes.

在本研究提案中，自我控制（定义为超越瞬间冲动、有利于长期目标追求的能力）和正念（定义为以非评判的方式关注当前时刻的能力）被作为两种替代方法进行对比。关于近端和远端结果的自我调节方法。动机干扰是指相互冲突的行为选择对当前体验和绩效的负面影响，反映了自我调节的近端不稳定。自我调节的远端结果与学业成绩，兴趣发展，休闲功能和一般well-being. It建议，自我控制有一个歧视，判断功能，因此促进自我调节，特别是在以成就为导向的设置和关于目标的实现。另一方面，正念被认为有一个更基本的功能，建立在自我洞察力，因此促进自我调节和幸福的各个领域。三项研究提出，他们都使用所谓的密集纵向方法（ILM，cf. Bolger & Laurenceau，2013）。在ILM中，参与者在一周或几个月内提供重复测量的序列，使人们能够描述日常生活中自然发生的变化过程，并为每个主题单独描述变化过程。因此，ILM结合了高生态有效性和可能性的优势，调查在人的变化过程。
