1Centre for Psychiatry Research, Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden;
Emotion regulation is key for mental health, involving abilities and dynamic processes. Improving these can treat psychopathology and behavioral issues, with digital interventions showing promise.
Area of Science:
- Psychology
- Neuroscience
- Mental Health
Background:
- Emotion regulation is crucial for psychological well-being.
- Existing theoretical models offer fragmented views of this complex process.
- Understanding emotion regulation is vital for addressing mental health challenges.
Purpose of the Study:
- To synthesize theoretical models into an integrative framework for emotion regulation.
- To explore the development and dynamics of emotion regulation abilities.
- To examine the role of emotion regulation in psychological interventions.
Main Methods:
- Literature review synthesizing established theoretical models.
- Analysis of developmental pathways influenced by biology and environment.
- Examination of psychological interventions targeting emotion regulation.
Main Results:
- An integrative framework linking regulatory abilities and dynamic processes was proposed.
- Development involves biological, environmental, and learning factors.
- Interventions, including digital ones, show emotion regulation improvements mediate treatment outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Emotion regulation is a feedback-sensitive system; failures contribute to psychopathology.
- Psychological interventions effectively target emotion regulation components.
- Future research should address conceptual and methodological challenges in emotion regulation studies.
