This study examines the influence of autonomy-supportive versus restrictive goal framing and the use of precommitment devices on journaling behavior. We aim to understand how these factors affect engagement and motivation. The findings will contribute to a broader understanding of how goal-framing and self-regulatory tools can promote sustained engagement in health-related behaviors and inform strategies for enhancing autonomy and long-term commitment.
Participants will be asked to complete 2 in-person surveys and regularly journal online via an app provided during the first survey.
