Abstract

People who report frequently using cognitive reappraisal to decrease the impact of potentially upsetting situations report better affective functioning than people who report using cognitive reappraisal less frequently. However, most work linking everyday reappraisal use to affective outcomes has been correlational, making causal inference difficult. In this study, we examined whether 2 weeks of daily practice of reappraising negatively valenced personally relevant events would improve affective functioning compared with a wait-list control. Data were collected between 2021 and 2022 from a sample mainly comprised of females (82%) and who identified as Asian (35%) or White/Caucasian (40%). Our planned analyses indicated that reappraisal decreased depressive symptoms and perceived stress as well as increased life satisfaction both immediately and 4 weeks postintervention. Reductions in depressive symptoms and perceived stress were mediated by increases in reappraisal self-efficacy. These findings support the causal efficacy of brief reappraisal training.

简短的重新评估干预会带来持久的情感益处。

经常使用认知再评价来减少潜在令人不安情况影响的人，其情感功能要好于较少使用认知再评价的人。然而，大多数将日常重评的使用与情感结果联系起来的研究都是相关性的，因此很难进行因果推论。在本研究中，我们考察了与等待对照组相比，每天练习两周重新评估负向个人相关事件是否会改善情感功能。数据收集时间为 2021 年至 2022 年，样本主要由女性（82%）和亚裔（35%）或白人/高加索人（40%）组成。我们计划进行的分析表明，干预后 4 周内和干预后 4 周内，重新评估都能减少抑郁症状和感知压力，并提高生活满意度。抑郁症状和感知压力的减轻是由再评价自我效能感的增强所促成的。这些研究结果支持了简短再评价训练的因果功效。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA，保留所有权利）。

期刊介绍： Emotion publishes significant contributions to the study of emotion from a wide range of theoretical traditions and research domains. The journal includes articles that advance knowledge and theory about all aspects of emotional processes, including reports of substantial empirical studies, scholarly reviews, and major theoretical articles. Submissions from all domains of emotion research are encouraged, including studies focusing on cultural, social, temperament and personality, cognitive, developmental, health, or biological variables that affect or are affected by emotional functioning. Both laboratory and field studies are appropriate for the journal, as are neuroimaging studies of emotional processes.
