=== Habits === {{See also|Habit}} Habits, defined as "behavioral tendencies tied to specific contexts, such as time of day, location, the presence of particular people, preceding actions, or even one's mood", habits develop through context, repetition, and reward and interact closely with goals to impact (often negatively) goal attainment. While goal setting can initiate behaviour change, it does appear likely that interventions combining goal setting with habit management strategies through disrupting bad habits by making them harder to fall into are more likely to be successful. Habits also reduce cognitive load and therefore good habit formation may be of benefit in particular to learning goal achievement which is often associated with more complex tasks by freeing up the cognitive resources needed to work towards the learning goal.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Fiorella|first=Logan|date=2020-09-01|title=The Science of Habit and Its Implications for Student Learning and Well-being|url=https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-020-09525-1|journal=Educational Psychology Review|language=en|volume=32|issue=3|pages=603β625|doi=10.1007/s10648-020-09525-1|s2cid=216460117|issn=1573-336X|url-access=subscription}}</ref>
