Primes¶
- Cognitive Resource Depletion
- It separates depleted and restored cognitive states and names the temporal trajectory through which capacity diminishes, a process model Inzlicht and Schmeichel (2012) develop to explain the dynamic course of self-control degradation and recovery.
This sourceProcess model recasting depletion as shifts in motivation and attention across Time 1 → Time 2 — the dynamic trajectory of consumption, decrement, and recovery the prime cites (D53-063). Verified with DOI.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
The abstract states the process model directly — Time 1 self-control shifts motivation and attention, undermining Time 2 self-control — but says nothing about restored states or recovery.
“This study proposes a process model of depletion, suggesting that exerting self-control at Time 1 causes temporary shifts in both motivation and attention that undermine self-control at Time 2.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
