Abstract

Self-regulation has important effects on work motivation and achievement. This paper focuses on self-regulation, the regulatory focus on promotion or prevention, and the fit between regulatory focus and tasks. The fit between the self-regulation of a person and an actual task can have a positive effect on motivation and work satisfaction. In addition, the efficiency of feedback concerning work and achievement as well as the success of programs which promote a healthy lifestyle depend on the recipient's regulatory focus. Taking the collaborators' regulatory focus and fit with tasks and with feedback on performance into account can have a positive impact on both motivation and productivity.
