Abstract
Implementation intentions: Control of fear despite cognitive load. The cognitive consequences of forming implementation intentions in controlling fear were addressed in the present study. Participants with an intense fear of spiders evaluated pictures of spiders, pleasant pictures, and neutral pictures under cognitive load. Regulatory control was measured by participants' self report ratings of the pictures on the Self-Assessment Manikins Scales. Only participants given implementation intentions reported weaker negative emotional responses to the pictures of spiders as compared to participants given a goal intention and to no-goal control participants. Thus, emotional control by implementation intentions was shown not to tax a person's cognitive resources, attesting to the automatic nature of this self-regulation strategy.
Summary in another language
Las intenciones de implementacion: controlar el miedo a pesar del esfuerzo cognitivo. En el presente estudio analizamos las consecuencias cognitivas de la formación de intenciones de implementación sobre el control del miedo. Los participantes, que tenÃan un intenso miedo a las arañas, evaluaron imágenes positivas, neutras y de arañas bajo una carga cognitiva. El control de regulación se midió mediante la autoevaluación de las imágenes con las Self-Assessment Manikins Scales. Sólo aquellos participantes que se propusieron una intención de implementación tuvieron unas reacciones emocionales menos acentuadas en respuesta a las imágenes de arañas que aquellos que se propusieron una meta simple o los participantes que no tenÃan meta alguna. AsÃ, el control de las emociones mediante intenciones de implementación no afectó a los recursos cognitivos de los participantes, lo que avala la automaticidad de esta estrategia de autorregulación.
