Abstract

Research examining initiation and outcomes of ER has primarily examined when people regulate their own emotions. In the present study, we investigated what predicts the initiation and outcomes of interpersonal emotion regulation (IER). We also examined whether the associations varied by major depressive disorder (MDD), which is characterized by several emotion regulation challenges, including in IER. Adults with and without MDD (N = 215) completed a 14-day EMA protocol, reporting on their emotional experience, recent events, and recent IER interactions. For IER initiation, we examined two features of subjective emotional experiences: participants’ affect (negative affect, positive affect) and emotional awareness (attention to emotion, emotional clarity), and two situational characteristics: event unpleasantness and goal interruption. For IER outcomes, we focused on sharing partners’ characteristics. Analyses utilized multilevel modeling. We focus on reporting within-person findings. Participants were more likely to initiate IER when the situation was more unpleasant and when goals were interrupted. Regarding IER outcomes, the extent to which participants experienced improved feelings about the problem and relational closeness varied depending on who was the sharing partner. Additionally, perceived warmth of sharing partner was associated with better IER outcomes. Initiating IER did not differ by MDD status, whereas associations between perceived warmth and IER outcomes did. Findings elucidate factors relevant to the IER process and serve to provide important insight into the contexts in which individuals might seek others to support their regulation and when the sharing partner were the most helpful in IER.

日常生活中人际情绪调节的启动和结果如何?
有关人际情绪调节的开始和结果的研究主要考察了人们在调节自身情绪时的情况。在本研究中,我们调查了人际情绪调节(IER)的启动和结果的预测因素。我们还研究了重度抑郁障碍(MDD)与情绪调节之间的联系是否存在差异,重度抑郁障碍的特点是存在多种情绪调节难题,包括人际情绪调节。患有和未患有重度抑郁症的成年人(N = 215)完成了一项为期 14 天的 EMA 方案,报告了他们的情绪体验、最近发生的事件以及最近的人际情绪调节互动。对于 IER 的启动,我们研究了主观情绪体验的两个特征:参与者的情绪(消极情绪、积极情绪)和情绪意识(对情绪的关注、情绪的清晰度),以及两个情境特征:事件的不愉快性和目标的中断。对于 IER 结果,我们重点关注分享伙伴的特征。分析采用了多层次模型。我们将重点报告人内研究结果。当情况更不愉快和目标被打断时,参与者更有可能启动 IER。关于 IER 的结果,参与者对问题的感受和关系亲密程度的改善程度因分享伙伴的不同而不同。此外,分享伙伴的温暖感也与更好的 IER 结果有关。发起 IER 并不因 MDD 状况而异,而感知到的温暖与 IER 结果之间的关联却存在差异。研究结果阐明了与IER过程相关的因素,并有助于深入了解个体在何种情况下可能会寻求他人来支持其调节,以及何时分享伙伴对IER最有帮助。

期刊介绍: Motivation and Emotion publishes articles on human motivational and emotional phenomena that make theoretical advances by linking empirical findings to underlying processes. Submissions should focus on key problems in motivation and emotion, and, if using non-human participants, should contribute to theories concerning human behavior.  Articles should be explanatory rather than merely descriptive, providing the data necessary to understand the origins of motivation and emotion, to explicate why, how, and under what conditions motivational and emotional states change, and to document that these processes are important to human functioning.A range of methodological approaches are welcome, with methodological rigor as the key criterion.  Manuscripts that rely exclusively on self-report data are appropriate, but published articles tend to be those that rely on objective measures (e.g., behavioral observations, psychophysiological responses, reaction times, brain activity, and performance or achievement indicators) either singly or combination with self-report data.The journal generally does not publish scale development and validation articles.  However, it is open to articles that focus on the post-validation contribution that a new measure can make.  Scale development and validation work therefore may be submitted if it is used as a necessary prerequisite to follow-up studies that demonstrate the importance of the new scale in making a theoretical advance.
