Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Muraven and Baumeister's theory of self-control proposes that self-control is a limited resource that can be temporarily depleted after exerting it in one task, making it difficult to control oneself in a subsequent task. This is consistent with option A, which reflects the idea of self-control being a limited inner resource that can be temporarily depleted. Option B, on the other hand, suggests that exerting self-control makes it easier to exert control on a subsequent occasion, which conflicts with the theory. Option C implies that people have many inner sources of self-control, which is not discussed explicitly in the theory, and option D suggests that self-control is an illusion, which contradicts the theory's premise of self-control being a real and limited resource.
