Depletion-As-Information: the Role of Feelings in Resource Depletion
We propose the depletion-as-information hypothesis that feelings of depletion signal to the self-control system that resources are low and self-regulatory effort should be minimized. Across three studies, depletion effects were attenuated when individuals discredited the informational value of their feelings and heightened among individuals who chronically experience feelings more intensely.
