“…Other definitions include the ability to move toward valued goals in spite of difficult emotions (Hayes & Feldman, 2004) and also as the process of amplifying, attenuating, or maintaining the strength of emotional reactions (e.g., subjective experience, expressive behavior, and physiological responses; Davidson, 2000). Emotion dysregulation (i.e., difficulties with emotion regulation) has been associated with a variety of forms of psychopathology, including anxiety (Olatunji, Forsyth, & Feldner, 2007), depression (Ehring et al, 2010), anger and aggression (Pond, Kashdan, DeWall, Savostyanova, Lambert, & Fincham, 2012) and decline in interpersonal relationship quality (Smith et al, 2011). As such, it is important to continue to explore ways to improve emotion regulation, and to decrease emotion dysregulation.…”
