Example: I am opposed at battefield A and have Game of Sincerity played on my Personality Bob. I move Bob home for my action. The battle then resolves.
Question: If I move Bob to battlefield B, does he contribute his force towards resolution or does Game of Sincerity's effects still apply?
Game of Sincerity: Political Battle: Dishonor your target unbowed Personality: Dishonor a target Personality. His controller loses 2 Honor. Neither Personality contributes Force in this battle's resolution.
The card specifically refers to "this battle's resolution" but I wasn't sure about its duration. Sorry if this question has been asked before- didn't see it specifically asked on search function. Thanks for your time.

He contributes force in the resolution of the battle at province B.
Game of Sincerity's ongoing effects (which come the text "Neither Personality contributes Force in this battle's resolution") last until the end of the turn. However, "this battle" only refers to the battle currently being fought, not to any subsequent battle this turn.
