The reward responsivity hypothesis of self-control proposes that irrespective success, exercising is aversive and engenders negative affect. To countermand this discomfort, reward-seeking behavior may be amplified after bouts self-control, bringing individuals back to a mildly positive baseline state. Previous studies indicated effort-an integral component self-control-can increase responsivity. We sought test extend the by asking if increases neural marker [Reward Positivity (RewP)] differentially for hedonic rewards or eudaimonic rewards. instructed participants (N = 114) complete speeded reaction time task where they exercised (incongruent Stroop trials) not (congruent then had opportunity win money themselves (hedonic rewards) charity (eudaimonic while electroencephalography was recorded. Consistent with hypothesis, evinced larger RewP (vs. self-control). Participants also showed over Self-control type did interactively modulate RewP, suggesting in domain-general manner. findings provide neurophysiological mechanism promise revitalize relevant literature.
