Self-regulation in the context of emerging adulthood
Original language description
Objectives: Self-regulation is an important part of human adaptive functioning throughout life. People use three fundamental self-regulatory strategies as life-management strategies in this context: selection, optimization and compensation. Most previousresearches have studied them more in middle age and old age. We focused on the period of emerging adulthood, when self-regulation processes importantly affect the future direction of development. Methods: We obtained data from 190 students (44 men) aged19-28 years (mean age 21.5 years). We used Selection, optimization and compensation questionnaire (SOC). Results: We found that self-regulatory characteristics are reflected in emerging adulthood in a different way compared to the results in older people. The use of self-regulatory strategies is below average to average, as dealing with characteristics of the examined period. We did not find significant gender differences; there has been no connection with age either.
