本研究的目的是探讨如何情绪清晰度和特定的情绪调节策略，认知重新评价，相互作用，以预测创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的症状严重程度和积极的影响寻求治疗的退伍军人（N = 75，93%男性）诊断为PTSD。创伤后应激障碍是一个高度相关的背景，因为创伤后应激障碍的特征包括应激反应增强，区分和理解情绪的能力减弱，以及依赖于适应不良的情绪调节形式。我们发现，高水平的情绪清晰度和频繁使用认知重新评价的组合与以下因素相关：（a）在解释了与积极情绪和情绪关注程度（对情绪的关注）的共享方差后，PTSD的总严重程度较低;（B）在解释了与PTSD的总严重程度和对情绪的关注的共享方差后，积极情绪较高。这是第一个展示情感清晰度和认知重新评价的交互作用的研究。爱思唯尔有限公司出版
The goal of this investigation was to examine how emotional clarity and a specific emotion regulation strategy, cognitive reappraisal, interact to predict Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptom severity and positive affect among treatment seeking military Veterans (N = 75, 93% male) diagnosed with PTSD. PTSD is a highly relevant context because PTSD features include heightened stress reactivity, diminished ability to differentiate and understand emotions, and reliance on maladaptive forms of emotion regulation. We found that the combination of high levels of emotional clarity and frequent use of cognitive reappraisal were associated with (a) lesser total PTSD severity after accounting for shared variance with positive affect and the extent to which emotions are attended to (attention to emotions), and (b) greater positive affect after accounting for shared variance with total PTSD severity and attention to emotions. This is the first study to demonstrate interactive effects of emotional clarity and cognitive reappraisal. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
