I wondered if anyone has come across “Future-Minded The Psychology of Agency and Control”? I notice the author cites Powers (78) in recent Psychological Bulletin paper. I wondered if she has any more to say and whether it is worth looking up?

Hi Vyv,

I’m currently reading the book. It has a lot to say that is on track with Control Theory… but it is not a PCT take on control in my estimation. In reading the book, I hadn’t seen a reference to Powers or PCT yet. Still, it’s definitely worth a read. The author appears to be in your neck of the woods… maybe you can sway her over to PCT. J
