English term or phrase: cognitive orientation
tag, das hier aus einem artikel über was ganz anderes (strategien für die rezession), aber es geht kurz um psycho:

That could be because of differences in executives’ ***cognitive orientation*** during a crisis. According to Tory Higgins, a Columbia University psychologist, human beings are hedonistic—we avoid pain and seek pleasure— but they differ in how they try to achieve those aims. There are two basic modes of self-regulation. Some people are driven most by goals, such as achieve- ment, advancement, and growth. These promotion- focused individuals are motivated by ideals and aspirations that provide pleasure if realized and disappointment if not. Other people are prevention-focused—concerned mainly with safety, security, and responsibility.

ich weiß schon, was gemeint ist, aber ich frage mich, ob es einen entsprechenden deutschen fachausdruck gibt? tia
