This book offers a framework about the motivational §consequences of comparison processes. Combining §motivational theories and Social Cognition, goals §are framed as comparison standards that influence §subsequent goal pursuit. §It is shown in which situations the comparison with §goals leads to assimilation or contrast of task §performance. It is also shown that similarity with a §standard person influences whether people adopt a §specific goal this standard person has. This offers §a new perspective on automatic comparison processes §as the initially perceived similarity with a §comparison standard is found to explain the §underlying mechanisms that lead people to adjust §their task performance towards standards or to §contrast their performance away from standards. §Four studies are presented that allow conclusions to §be drawn about the standard-related knowledge that §becomes selectively accessible during goal pursuit. §These findings offer new insights into automatic §motivational processes and demonstrate the influence §of unintentional comparisons on goal pursuit.
