“…Looking at items of ATC, several items of ATC measure needs to emotional regulate and attentional shifting under emotional situations (“When I am happy and excited about an upcoming event, I have a hard time focusing my attention on tasks that require concentration” or “It is very hard for me to focus my attention when I am distressed”). Indeed, ATC was associated with emotional regulations such as a control of anger 47 . There is a possibility that the score of ATC in EC represents emotional aspects of attention control such as need of emotional regulation, but not cognitive aspects of attention control.…”

Effortful control (EC) is a base of individuality in cognition and psychological adjustment. EC is defined as a capacity to control responses and behaviors. We investigated associations between individual differences of EC and regional gray and white matter volume (rGMV/rGMV) in 374 men and 306 women (age, 20.61 ± 1.82 years) using Japanese version of Effortful control scale (J-ECS). J-ECS consists of three subscales such as inhibitory control (IC), activation control (ACTC), and attentional control (ATC). Results showed that (a) IC was associated with larger rGMV in the dorsal part of anterior cingulate cortex (dACC), the supplementary motor area (SMA) and the pre SMA and larger rWMV in the dACC, (b) ACTC was correlated with smaller rGMV in the insula and the putamen, and (c) ATC was associated with larger rWMV in the inferior frontal gyrus, orbital frontal gyrus, ACC, and insula. Our study revealed key neuroanatomical correlations between EC and rGMV and rWMV.

“…Behaviorally, the ECS subscales correlated significantly with the inhibition function measured by cognitive tasks (i.e., Go/No‐go task, Murakami et al, 2009; and Stroop task, Yamagata, Takahashi, Shigematsu et al, 2005). Relationships with various personality traits have also been examined (mindfulness traits, Nishimura & Matsuda, 2020; Usami & Tagami, 2012; Big Five personality traits, Rothbart et al, 2000; state/trait anger, Sekiguchi & Tanno, 2006). In this way, EC constructs represent trait‐like features but have yet to be investigated with IATs.…”

Interoceptive attention tendencies (IATs) have been theorized to include facets of awareness and evaluative aspects for skillfully attending toward one's bodily sensations in a regulatory manner. However, the relations between IATs and factors for the trait‐like control of behavioral effort are unknown. Here, we tested associations between IATs measured via the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA) and control‐related factors from the Effortful Control Scale (ECS) for adults in a nationally representative online survey of 500 Japanese working adults (analytic sample, N = 463; 274 females, Mage = 46.63 years, SD = 11.58 years). The results of the confirmatory factor analysis for the MAIA showed acceptable model fit for the six‐factor model similar to previous studies with Japanese respondents. Adjusting for the influence of age and gender, partial correlations indicated that the evaluative dimensions of the MAIA were positively correlated with the Inhibitory Control, Activation Control, and Attentional Control factors of the ECS (Pearson's partial rs range .14 to .25, ps < .01). Exploratory multiple regression analysis indicated that the Attention Regulation factor of the MAIA was a statistically significant predictor of effortful control modeled as total score. Taken together, the results were theoretically consistent with previous studies investigating relations with trait‐like factors of personality and mental health indicators for full‐time workers in Japan. Relative to the constructs of awareness, our empirical correlations provide specificity for the construct validity of IATs with trait indicators of effortful control and implications for implementation research.
