“…It is likely that emotion researchers recognize that the study of emotion dictates a multimethod framework; however, pragmatic reasons (e.g., recruiting and retaining participants, lack of appropriate and valid measures, procedure expense) may interfere with the pursuit of a multilevel approach. Furthermore, the use of multiple methods not only duplicates data but also often provides complementary insights that are not readily apparent through reliance on a single method of data collection (Larsen and Prizmic-Larsen, 2006).…”

“…The method relied solely on children's self-report of their symptoms and emotion functioning. The literature supports the use of self-report when assessing internalizing symptoms (e.g., [66]) and for emotion research because access to emotional experience and internalizing symptomatology is typically gained through introspection [67]. However, gaining multiple reports of the child's psychological and emotional functioning would provide a broader picture of their functioning and add validity to the findings.…”

This study examined whether specific emotion-related constructs may be uniquely related to anxious or depressive symptoms in youth. Although anxiety and depression are comorbid in both youth and adult populations, delineation of these disorders is a worthwhile endeavor given that such differentiation may lead to a clearer conceptualization of the disorders that in turn may facilitate more efficient diagnosis and effective treatment. Children in the 4th and 5th grades (N = 187; M age = 10 years, 3 months) completed measures to assess symptoms of anxiety and depression and emotion-related functioning. Using structural equation modeling, emotion-related variables were identified that were common to both anxiety and depression (poor emotion awareness, emotion dysregulation, poor emotion regulation coping, high frequency of negative affect), most strongly related to depression (low frequency of positive affect), and most distinctly associated with anxiety (frequency of emotion experience, somatic response to emotion activation). The findings suggest that comprehensive theoretical formulations of anxiety and depression in youth should consider emotion-related variables. The results also suggest potential avenues that may facilitate more efficient assessment and treatment of such youth.

“…However, because this research is still in its infancy, several important questions remain. First, given evidence to suggest that the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and the HPA axis can have antagonistic, synergistic, or independent effects [70,71], it is essential that research assess the role of multiple physiological indices of emotion dysregulation (and their interactions) in risky behaviors. Indeed, recent research suggests that concurrently low or high autonomic nervous system and HPA axis activation is associated with the highest levels of involvement in risky behaviors [72*,73].…”

Extant literature provides support for emotion dysregulation as a transdiagnostic construct with relevance to the pathogenesis and treatment of numerous psychiatric difficulties and maladaptive behaviors, including risky, self-destructive, and health-compromising behaviors (e.g., substance use, risky sexual behavior). The aim of the present review is to synthesize theory and empirical research on the relationship between emotion dysregulation and risky behaviors. In addition, we highlight cutting-edge approaches for investigating the emotion dysregulation-risky behavior, including examination of the role of positive emotional experiences and inclusion of context-dependent and physiological assessments. Finally, we note the relevance of the emotion dysregulation-risky behavior relation to intervention efforts aimed at reducing risky behaviors.
