Abstract Synopsis

  • The meta-analysis of 83 studies confirms that ego depletion, based on the strength model of self-control, significantly impairs task performance, affects perceived difficulty, increases negative affect, fatigue, and reduces blood glucose levels, though its impact on positive emotions and self-efficacy is minimal.
  • Moderator factors such as the type of depleting task, its duration, presentation, and complexity, as well as motivational incentives and glucose intake, influence the strength and effects of ego depletion, indicating variability across different contexts.
  • The findings suggest that ego depletion is real, but alternative explanations like motivation and fatigue also play roles, underscoring the need to integrate the strength model with other theories and explore additional mechanisms in future research.]
