有效的情绪调节对身心健康是必不可少的。近几十年来，对情绪调节背后的心理机制的研究呈指数级增长。大多数调查情绪调节过程的基础研究都评估了基于实验室的单一会话期间的情绪变化。一个相对未充分探索的主题是评估使用特定策略有效调节情绪的能力是否以及如何在个体内随时间变化（例如，通过培训）。本综述的目的是检查健康人群和临床人群中这一主题的现有研究。我将提供一个框架，为未来的纵向情绪调节干预研究的设计，可能会进一步解决这个问题，与因素，包括策略或策略培训;情况因素，包括数量，频率和交付方式的干预会议，以及生态效度的刺激经历在每个时间点;以及人的因素，包括训练接受者的个体差异，在健康和临床人群内和跨健康和临床人群。对这些因素进行彻底的、理论上有动机的检查，对于开发新的、以证据为基础的、越来越个性化的纵向干预措施以提高情绪调节效能将是重要的。
Effective emotion regulation is indispensable for mental and physical health. Recent decades have seen exponential growth in research into the psychological mechanisms underlying emotion regulation. Much of the foundational research investigating emotion regulation processes has assessed changes in emotion during single laboratory-based sessions. One relatively underexplored topic is the assessment of whether and how the ability to regulate emotion effectively using particular strategies can change over time within an individual (e.g., through training). The goal of this review is to examine existing research into this topic in healthy as well as clinical populations. I will provide a framework for the design of future longitudinal emotion regulation intervention studies that may further address this topic, with factors including the strategy or strategies trained; situation factors including the number, frequency, and delivery modality of intervention sessions as well as the ecological validity of the stimuli experienced at each time point; and person factors including training recipient individual differences, within and across healthy and clinical populations. Thorough, theoretically motivated examination of these factors will be important in the development of novel, evidence-based, and increasingly personalized longitudinal interventions to improve emotion regulation efficacy.
