People regulated more in less familiar, less pleasant contexts and with more dominant, less warm social partners. We were especially surprised that people who believe emotions are more controllable actually initiated regulation less often.
Most work on emotion regulation asks who uses which strategies and when. We asked a more basic question: who initiates any emotion regulation in daily life, and when does regulation happen at all?
Excited to share that our paper, “To Regulate or Not To Regulate? Situational and Individual Differences in Emotion Regulation Initiation in Daily Life,” was accepted at Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin!
