Future time perspective, regulatory focus, and selection, optimization, and compensation: Testing a longitudinal model
研究未来时间视角和调节焦点如何影响老年工人的应对行为，通过三波纵向调查发现未来时间视角通过调节焦点影响选择、优化和补偿策略的使用。
Summary This study examines the behavioral processes through which future time perspective (FTP) and regulatory focus may influence coping behaviors in older workers. A three‐wave longitudinal study was conducted to test a novel model, positing that FTP affects regulatory focus, which then influences the coping strategies of selection, optimization, and compensation. A sample of participants from the Netherlands was invited to participate and complete online questionnaires. Results demonstrated strong support that FTP was found to influence regulatory focus, which then influenced the use of selection, optimization, and compensation behaviors.
