历史上的研究表明，通过表达情绪来应对压力是不适应的。随着对压力相关情绪表达的概念和评估的改进，最近的研究表明，情绪表达可以促进处于压力下的个体的幸福感。压力源、个体、社会环境和情绪表达本身的特征决定了情绪表达性应对是否有益。确定在何种情况下谁能从情绪表达中受益，以及情绪表达应对的积极效果如何产生，可以为应对和情绪理论提供信息，并进一步发展针对承受压力人群的干预措施。
Historically, research has suggested that coping with stress by expressing emotions is maladaptive. With improved conceptualization and assessment of stressor-related emotional expression, more recent research has revealed that emotional expression can promote well-being in individuals who are under stress. Characteristics of stressors, individuals, social contexts, and the emotional expressions themselves determine whether emotionally expressive coping is beneficial. Identifying who benefits from emotional expression in which contexts and how the positive effects of emotionally expressive coping accrue can inform theories of coping and emotion and further the development of interventions for populations undergoing stress.
