Present study focused on the active behavior as a controlling response of self-control in everyday life. In survey 1, ninety-two undergraduates reported to open questions that they hoped to control the following six target (controlled) responses : academic performance, money savings, human relations, beauty and health, extracurricular activities, and life as a whole. In survey 2, eighty-nine undergraduates were asked what they would do or would not do for target responses as acquiring course credits, health maintenance, getting up early, and so on. In both surveys, the students reported not only active responses, but also repressive responses as controlling responses of each targets, although they reported active responses more than repressive responses. The ratio of active response number to repressive response number varied across targets. The present results suggest that not only repressive behaviors but also active ones should be examined and utilized as a controlling response for the cost-effective establishment of self-control.
