Ego depletion by response exaggeration
Article Abstract:
The depletion hypothesis was tested, by performing cognitive fluency tests after exaggerating responses to a disgusting film clip and the response exaggeration produced increased emotional expression but did not increase subjective emotional experience. The cognitive aftereffects of exaggeration were not attributable to emotional experience or to changes in sympathetic or parasympathetic arousal.

The results indicate that the behavioral impact of automatic attitudes and personal standards depends on available self-control resources and ego depletion reduces the ability to regulate one's behavior.

Gassing, braking, and self-regulating: Error self-regulation, well-being, and goal-related processes
Article Abstract:
Five studies used a robust cognitive model, which proposes that people seek to interrupt processing routines after making an error in choice reaction time tasks. Findings indicate the functionality of individual differences in error self-regulation and help to elucidate the processing basis of such relations.
