in risky behaviors without weighing the consequences of their actions. At the same time, this trait is distinct from other, closely related constructs. For example, inhibition is “a temperament or style of reacting with fear or withdrawal when confronted with novelty, including both novel situations as well as unfamiliar adults or peers” (Fox, Henderson, Marshall, Nichols, & Ghera, 2005; Kagan & Snidman, 2004). Inhibition is not the obverse of undercontrol.
