This paper aims to examine the quest for significance in adults according to their demographic variables and determine the correlational relationships between their quest for significance and psychological symptoms. The participants of this study, which was designed according to the survey method; a total of 605 adults are 383 females and 222 males in the age range of 18-65 years. Significance Quest Scale, Symptom Checklist and Personal Information Form were used as data collection tools. T-test, ANOVA and simple linear regression method were applied in the analysis of the data obtained from the measurement tools. As a result of the research, a significant difference was determined according to adults’ age and income levels. On the other hand, no significant difference was found in terms of gender. A low level of positive correlation was found between their quest for significance and the psychological symptoms of paranoid thoughts, anger/hostility, and interpersonal sensitivity. The results of the research were interpreted and discussed in line with the relevant literature.

“…However, a few studies find that between‐ERV is not associated with well‐being (Bahlinger, Lincoln & Clamor, 2022; Elkjaer et al ., 2022). Similar mixed findings are evident for within‐ERV, with one study reporting a link between within‐ERV and reduced well‐being (Elkjaer et al ., 2022), while others find a connection between within‐ERV and increased well‐being (Wang et al ., 2021; Wenzel et al ., 2022), and yet again others find no relationship between within‐ERV and well‐being (Bahlinger et al ., 2022; Battaglini et al ., 2022). Lastly, concerning ERD, two studies failed to find consistent associations between ERD and well‐being (Elkjaer et al ., 2022; Wenzel et al ., 2022).…”

“…With respect to between‐ERV, some studies indicate that between‐ERV is associated with better mental health outcomes including fewer symptoms of depression (Wang, Blain, Meng, Liu & Qiu, 2021) and less negative affect (Battaglini, Rnic, Jameson, Jopling, Albert & LeMoult, 2022; Blanke et al ., 2020; Wang et al ., 2021; Wenzel, Blanke, Rowland & Kubiak, 2022).

The present experience sampling study investigated the effect of age on emotion regulation patterns (i.e., emotion regulation strategy effectiveness, variability, and differentiation) in daily life. The study further explored the implications of potential age differences in emotion regulation patterns for well‐being. A sample of 406 adults (age range: 18–81, 62.8% female) were prompted five times a day for seven days to rate momentary emotions, emotion regulation strategy use, and emotion regulation strategy effectiveness. Based on these ratings, indicators of emotion regulation variability and differentiation were calculated. Well‐being outcomes included daily positive and negative emotions, and symptoms of depression and anxiety assessed at baseline. The findings revealed reduced emotion regulation variability with age and a negative association between emotion regulation variability and well‐being. There were no associations between age and emotion regulation effectiveness or differentiation. Emotion regulation effectiveness was associated with more positive and less negative daily emotions, and these associations were stronger for younger adults compared to older adults. Drawing on prominent lifespan theories, the findings may indicate that as people age, they select and apply a few strategies that they know will be effective given the context and their resources which leads to reduced emotion regulation variability but ultimately more well‐being. Concerning emotion regulation effectiveness, the findings suggest that effectiveness is less important for emotional well‐being in daily life in older adulthood possibly because well‐being is determined by other factors (e.g., less frequent and more predictable stressors) with age.

“…ESM studies in psychosis revealed that patients with psychosis reported higher efforts in regulating emotions and used more strategies than healthy controls in the flow of daily life (Ludwig et al, 2020a;Raugh and Strauss, 2021;Visser et al, 2018). In early psychosis, increased use of acceptance and reappraisal predicted lower negative affect at the following timepoint, while increased use of rumination and suppression was associated with higher negative affect (Bahlinger et al, 2021). ESM thus makes it possible to examine how the use of different ER strategies unfolds in the context of daily life in psychosis.…”

Background: Individuals with chronic psychosis consistently show impairment in emotion regulation (ER). However, little is known about how contextual appraisals shape ER strategy use in individuals in the early stages of psychosis. The present study investigates the extent to which different appraisal dimensions of the most negative and positive events of the day are associated with ER strategy use in individuals with ultra-high risk (UHR) and first-episode psychosis (FEP).Method: Sixty-eight UHR individuals and fifty-five FEP individuals filled out an experience sampling evening questionnaire for six consecutive days, in which their appraisal of intensity, importance and perceived control concerning the most negative or positive event of the day, and the ER strategies they deploy in response to these events were measured.Results: Multilevel mixed effect models showed that intensity appraisal was most closely associated with ER strategy use, as opposed to importance and controllability appraisals. Higher intense negative events were associated with more rumination and social sharing, while less intense negative events were associated with more reappraisal. Higher intense positive events were associated with a greater number of deployed strategies and more efforts in using savoring, expression and social sharing. The UHR and FEP individuals did not significantly differ regarding effects of above-mentioned appraisal dimensions on ER.Conclusions: These results provide evidence supporting ER flexibility in early psychosis, and event intensity emerged as the dimension most strongly associated with ER. Future research should better account for other situational factors (such as social context) that might affect ER use in psychosis.
