We introduce an interlocking self-regulation model of negotiation. A centra
l tenet of this new model is that negotiation is both external (getting the
other side to offer what you want) and internal (deciding whether to want
what the other side offers). We discuss important issues implicit in this m
odel, and we propose strategies by which negotiators reduce discrepancies b
etween standards and offers, incorporating research on the role of attribut
ions.
