Abstract
Self-control for dietary behaviour is important for the improvement of numerous physical and mental health conditions. The current thesis explored individual differences in self-control and related psychological constructs. The current studies identified key constructs for dietary self-control, validated scales to measure them, and proposed a serial mediation model in which dietary goal-desire incongruence affects self-control, which affects motivation for dietary self-control, which then affects satisfaction with dietary behaviour. The fifth study evaluated inhibitory control training and showed that an online delivery could be effective via associative learning. The current thesis extended previous research in dietary self-control for health.
