520 _aRecent developments in cognitive and social psychology suggest that self-control demands have an effect as a source of stress at work. Initial findings revealed that self-control demands were positively related to job strain. However, evidence is lacking so far as to whether self-control demands exert unique influences on strain. Consequently, in the present study different forms of self-control demands (impulse control, resisting distractions, overcoming inner resistances) were investigated in combination with role ambiguity as a well-established work stressor. The results showed that (a) the measured forms of self-control demands jointly contributed significant portions of incremental variance to the prediction of various measures of strain, and (b) each form was able to explain specific portions of variance in strain.
