情绪调节技能的缺陷已被广泛证明与情绪调节能力差有关。然而，目前尚不清楚这些赤字是调整不力的原因还是后果。本研究的目的是澄清这两个概念之间的相互影响。在2项研究（Ns = 446和635）中，情绪调节和情绪调节的自我报告进行了两次评估，间隔2周。交叉滞后回归分析表明，自我报告的情绪调节预测随后的调整，以上的影响，以前的调整，而情绪调节并不能预测随后的情绪调节。因此，关注情绪调节技能可能对预防和治疗与情感相关的心理健康问题很重要。
Deficits in emotion-regulation skills have widely been shown to be associated with poor emotional adjustment. However, it is still unclear whether these deficits are a cause or a consequence of poor adjustment. The purpose of the present research was to clarify the reciprocal effects between these 2 concepts. In 2 studies (Ns = 446 and 635), self-reports of emotion regulation and emotional adjustment were assessed twice with a 2-week interval. Cross-lagged regression analyses demonstrated that self-reports of emotion regulation predicted subsequent adjustment, over and above the effects of previous adjustment, whereas emotional adjustment did not predict subsequent emotion regulation. Thus, a focus on emotion-regulation skills may be important in the prevention and treatment of affect-related mental health problems.
