>Premeditation reflects “the tendency to think and reflect on the consequences of an
act before engaging in that act,” and lack of Premeditation appears to be the most common
conceptualization of impulsivity in personality psychology (Whiteside & Lynam, 2001,
p. 685). The working definition of impulsivity, presented earlier, described two modes of
failure to restrain impulses: (1) failure to consider possible negative consequences before
acting and (2) succumbing to temptation despite considering negative consequences. Lack
of Premeditation clearly indicates the former.<
