초록
Higgins(2000)의 조절부합이론을 토대로 개인의 자기조절 상황에서 목표달성을 저해하는 행위와촉진하는 행위 각각에 연합된 조절초점이 부합할 때, 부합하지 않을 때보다, 자기조절 효과성이높다는 가설을 실험연구를 통해서 검증하였다. 2(목표 방해행위 조절초점: 향상/예방) x 2(목표 촉진행위 조절초점: 향상/예방)의 2원 참가자간 무선설계에 배정된 63명의 한국 대학생 자료가 분석에 사용되었다. 실험에서 자기조절 효과성은 목표 달성(실험과제 완성)에 방해가 되는 행동(게임) 을 중지하고 목표 달성에 요구되는 행동(실험과제 학습)을 실행하는 것으로 정의하였다. 연구 결과, 참여자들은 게임을 시작할 때의 조절초점과 목표 수행에 대한 조절초점이 부합할 때, 부합하지 않을 때보다, 게임을 빨리 중지 하였고 실험과제를 연습하는데 많은 시간을 할애하였다. 이러한 부합효과의 심리적 기제가 목표 활성화임을 확인하기 위하여 전반적 목표 활성화 수준을 질문지를 통해서 측정하였다. 분석 결과, 비부합 조건보다 부합 조건에서 개인이 가장 중요하다고 생각하는 목표 관련 실행계획을 많이 보고했다. 건강심리 연구와 관련된 본 연구의 시사점과 장래연구 방향을 논의하였다.

Abstract
The present study examined the effects of regulatory fit between a goal-inhibiting behavior (playing a game) and a facilitating behavior (practicing the experimental task) in a situation where individuals manage the two behaviors in a sequential manner. Building on the regulatory fit hypothesis (Higgins, 2000), it was predicted that, compared to a non-fit between the two behaviors, a fit between the two would have a positive impact on individuals' ability to self-regulate. We analyzed data from a total of 63 Korean college students who were randomly assigned to conditions in a 2(goal-inhibiting behavior: promotion focus vs. prevention focus) x 2(goal-facilitating behavior: promotion focus vs. prevention focus) between participants design. Success of self-regulation was examined using two indices: The amount of time used on playing the game and the time spent to practice the experimental task. Results indicated, as expected, that on both indices self-regulation was more successful when the two behaviors were matched in terms of the regulatory focus than when the two mismatched. Questionnaire data revealed that the overall level of goal activation was higher in the fit condition than in the non-fit condition. Implications of these findings for research in health psychology and future directions are discussed.
