在两项研究中，作者考察了自尊、坚持不懈和面对失败时的沉思。研究1操纵了失败的程度和目标替代方案的可用性。当可供选择时，高自尊(HSE)参与者在一次失败后比低自尊(LSE)参与者坚持得更多，但在反复失败后坚持得更少。在没有其他选择的情况下，在坚持方面没有自尊差异。伦敦证交所的参与者比伦敦证交所的参与者更深思。研究二考察了在一个学年中对10个个人目标的坚持性和沉思。与伦敦政治经济学院的参与者相比，HSE参与者被更好地校准(在感知的进步和跨目标的持久力之间具有更高的学科内相关性)，具有更高的总体坚持水平，更高的平均成绩，以及更低的沉思水平。尽管强调HSE个人坚韧坚持的传统观点需要修正，但HSE人在自我调节目标导向行为方面似乎更有效。
In 2 studies, the authors examined self-esteem, persistence, and rumination in the face of failure. Study 1 manipulated degree of failure and availability of goal alternatives. When an alternative was available, high self-esteem (HSE) participants persisted more than low self-esteem (LSE) participants after a single failure, but less after repeated failure. When no alternative was available, no self-esteem differences in persistence emerged. LSE participants ruminated more than HSE participants. Study 2 examined persistence and rumination for 10 personal goals across an academic year. HSE participants were better calibrated (higher within-subject correlations between perceived progress and persistence across goals), had higher overall levels of persistence, higher grade point averages, and lower levels of rumination than LSE participants. Although traditional views that emphasize the tenacious persistence of HSE individuals need revision, HSE people appear more effective in self-regulating goal-directed behavior.
