Speed/accuracy decisions in tasks performance: built-in trade-off or separate strategic concerns?

Article Abstract:

Regulatory theory states that promotion focus concerns with accomplishments and aspirations produce strategic eagerness whereas prevention focus concerns with safety and responsibilities produce strategic vigilance.
