情绪失调被认为是负面心理结果发展的关键。Gross （1998b）将调节策略的时机概念化为这种关系的关键，与以前因为中心的策略（如认知重评）相比，以反应为中心的策略（如表达抑制）效果更差，危害更大。在当前的研究中，我们在大学生和创伤暴露的社区女性样本中研究了重评价和表达抑制与精神病理学测量之间的关系，特别是与压力相关的反应。一般来说，表达抑制与较高的压力相关症状相关，而重新评估与较低的自我报告的压力相关症状相关。特别是，在创伤暴露的社区样本中，表达抑制与创伤后应激障碍、焦虑和抑郁症状相关，反刍在一定程度上介导了这种关联。最后，基于因子分析，表达抑制和认知重评似乎是独立的构念。总的来说，表达抑制比认知重新评估更重要，可能在压力相关症状的体验中发挥重要作用。此外，考虑到它们的独立性，有潜在的相关临床意义，因为改变其中一种情绪调节策略的干预措施可能不会导致另一种情绪调节策略的改变。Elsevier Ltd.出版。
Emotion dysregulation is thought to be critical to the development of negative psychological outcomes. Gross (1998b) conceptualized the timing of regulation strategies as key to this relationship, with response-focused strategies, such as expressive suppression, as less effective and more detrimental compared to antecedent-focused ones, such as cognitive reappraisal. in the current study, we examined the relationship between reappraisal and expressive suppression and measures of psychopathology, particularly for stress-related reactions, in both undergraduate and trauma-exposed community samples of women. Generally, expressive suppression was associated with higher, and reappraisal with lower, self-reported stress-related symptoms. In particular, expressive suppression was associated with PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms in the trauma-exposed community sample, with rumination partially mediating this association. Finally, based on factor analysis, expressive suppression and cognitive reappraisal appear to be independent constructs. Overall, expressive suppression, much more so than cognitive reappraisal, may play an important role in the experience of stress-related symptoms. Further, given their independence, there are potentially relevant clinical implications, as interventions that shift one of these emotion regulation strategies may not lead to changes in the other.
