The editors, three psychologists based at universities in the Netherlands, US, and Israel, offer an overview of perspectives on self-regulation, a relatively new area in psychological research. The handbook's 23 chapters are organized in three sections: general theories and models of self-regulation that can be applied to many domains of human behavior; applications in educational, health, and organizational psychology; and the application of self-regulation constructs to improve practice. In focusing on the ways individuals guide and direct their own behavior, cognition, and affect, the contributors also explore the similarities and differences in the conceptual frameworks, paradigms, and methodologies of researchers in different areas of psychology.
