情绪调节研究蓬勃发展。然而,对这一主题的热情超过了概念的清晰度,导致了一系列不同的发现。在本综述中,我们汇集了两个概念框架,我们认为这可能有助于组织现有的研究结果,并为未来的研究提出方向。第一个考虑的是个人对情绪的基本信念,以及他们在情绪调节中所扮演的普遍角色。第二个确定了情绪调节如何随着时间的推移而展开(格罗斯,2015)。我们将这两个框架放在一起,以突出个人对情绪的信念如何影响情绪调节过程中的每一步:确定需要调节,选择调节策略,实施调节,并监测一个人的调节成功。在每个阶段,我们都考虑了个体的信念如何塑造他们应用于自己的情绪调节(内在情绪调节),以及他们应用于他人的情绪调节(外在情绪调节)。最后,我们强调了未来研究的几个有前途的方向。
Emotion regulation research is flourishing. However, enthusiasm for this topic has outpaced conceptual clarity, resulting in a maelstrom of disparate findings. In the present review, we bring together two conceptual frameworks that we believe may be useful in organizing existing findings and suggesting directions for future research. The first considers individuals' fundamental beliefs about emotion and the pervasive role they play in emotion regulation. The second identifies how emotion regulation unfolds across time (Gross, 2015). We bring these two frameworks together to highlight how individuals' beliefs about emotion influence each step in the emotion regulation process: identifying a need to regulate, selecting regulation strategies, implementing regulation, and monitoring one's regulatory success. At each stage, we consider both how individuals' beliefs shape the emotion regulation they apply to themselves (intrinsic emotion regulation), and also the emotion regulation they apply to others (extrinsic emotion regulation). We conclude by highlighting several promising directions for future research.
