“…Regarding the objectives of the studies, 11 studies evaluated the link between EA and other variables (e.g., age, parental characteristics, gender). Ten studies compared groups of subjects based on different variables, such as clinical conditions (Demurie et al, 2011;Klabunde et al, 2021;Martin-Key et al, 2017;Martin-Key et al, 2020;Vilas et al, 2021), intervention (Goldstein & Winner, 2012;Kral et al, 2018), age (Kunzmann et al, 2018), and school bullying (Franzen et al, 2021). Finally, Braun and von Oertzen (2021) evaluated contextual differences in a within-subject design by testing how the presence of a mentor enhanced EA in adolescents when talking about an emotional subject.…”
