Interpersonal emotion regulation strategies: can they function differently under certain conditions?

Cybervictimisation and depressive symptoms among adolescents: A moderated mediation model

“…cybervictimisation, maladaptive CERS, depressive symptoms, and gratitude) were in line with other studies (e.g. Estévez et al, 2019;Kaniuka et al, 2020;Ray-Yol et al, 2020;Rey et al, 2019Rey et al, , 2020. Therefore, our results suggest that experiencing a highly stressful situation, such as cyberbullying, was related to more depressive symptomatology and a more frequent use of less-adaptive strategies (e.g.…”

“…cybervictimisation, maladaptive CERS, depressive symptoms, and gratitude), expecting to find positive relationships between cybervictimisation, maladaptive CERS and depressive symptoms, and negative associations between gratitude and the other study variables, in line with previous research (e.g. Estévez et al, 2019;Kaniuka et al, 2020;Ray-Yol et al, 2020;Rey et al, 2019Rey et al, , 2020. Moreover, following Folkman et al's stress and coping theory (1986) and previous evidence about the mediating role of maladaptive CERS in the relationship between stressful situations and internalising symptoms (e.g.…”

“…higher levels of negative affect, somatic complaints, and depressive symptoms, as well as lower levels of subjective and psychological well-being, among others), through a more frequent use of maladaptive CERS, such as self-blame or rumination, to cope with stressful situation (e.g. Balzarotti et al, 2016;Ray-Yol et al, 2020;Stikkelbroek et al, 2016;Yan et al, 2015). Moreover, previous findings suggest that adolescents and young people tend to more frequent use of maladaptive CERS to cope with stressful situations and to manage negative emotions derived (Maji et al, 2016;Potard et al, 2021;Rey et al, 2020;Stikkelbroek et al, 2016 ;Yan et al, 2015).…”

“…According to the broaden-and-build model (Fredrickson, 1998) and previous evidence of the buffering role of gratitude on negative impact as a consequence of stressful situations (Deichert et al, 2019;Rey et al, 2019), we wanted to examine whether gratitude may play a moderator role in the relationship between cybervictimisation and depressive symptoms. Likewise, due to the fact that a more frequent use of maladaptive CERS is related to an increase in negative affect and depressive symptoms (Balzarotti et al, 2016;Ray-Yol et al, 2020), it is tentatively assumed that gratitude might have a potential buffering role on depressive symptoms in those adolescents who make more frequent use of maladaptive CERS to cope with cybervictimisation. Finally, following the coping hypothesis (Wood et al, 2007) and the role of gratitude in favouring a better coping with difficult situations, decreasing the frequency of the use of less-adaptive strategies (H. Liang et al, 2020;Sun et al, 2019), we wanted to explore whether gratitude could interact with cybervictimisation on maladaptive CERS (see Fig.…”

Exploring the Relationship Between Interpersonal Emotion Regulation and Social Anxiety Symptoms: The Mediating Role of Negative Mood Regulation Expectancies

“…Although enhancing positive affect was not directly related to social anxiety symptoms, the indirect relationship between enhancing positive affect and social anxiety through NMRE was significant. The results of studies examining enhancing positive affect and its relationships with various psychological disturbances indicated that it may not be a maladaptive strategy (Ray-Yol et al, 2020 ). For example, several studies found that enhancing positive affect is negatively associated with depression (Altan-Atalay & Saritas-Atalar, 2019 ; Koç et al, 2019 ), and others found no correlation between enhancing positive affect and various psychological problems, such as depression and anxiety (Gökdağ, 2021 ; Gökdağ & Naldöken, 2021 ; Hofmann et al, 2016 ).…”
