Abstract

Adaptivno reguliranje emocionalnih stanja jedna je od važnih odrednica optimalnog funkcioniranja i pod utjecajem je različitih situacijskih i dispozicijskih varijabli. Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati postoji li moderatorski utjecaj intenziteta neugodnih emocija na odnos emocionalne diferencijacije i korištenja različitih strategija za emocionalnu regulaciju (supresije i ponovne kognitivne procjene). Proveli smo upitničko online istraživanje na uzorku od 349 osoba u dobi od 18 do 29 godina. Utvrđena je interakcija emocionalne diferencijacije i intenziteta doživljavanja neugodnih emocija pri predviđanju sklonosti korištenja supresije, no ne i ponovne kognitivne procjene. Kod osoba koje vrlo intenzivno doživljavaju neugodne emocije, s porastom sposobnosti razlikovanja emocija smanjuje se korištenje supresije, a kod onih koji ih doživljavaju niskim intenzitetom emocionalna diferencijacija ne predviđa korištenje supresije. Korištenje ponovne kognitivne procjene raste s porastom emocionalne diferencijacije, neovisno o razini intenziteta neugodnih emocija.

Abstract (english)

Adaptive regulation of emotional states is an important determinant of optimal functioning and it is under the influence of various situational and dispositional variables. The aim of this study was to examine whether negative emotion intensity moderates the relationship between emotional differentiation and the use of different strategies for emotional regulation (suppression and reappraisal). We conducted an online questionnaire survey with a sample of 349 people aged 18 to 29. The interaction of emotional differentiation and the intensity of experiencing negative emotions was detected when predicting the tendency to use suppression, but not reappraisal. In people who experience negative emotions with greater intensity, the increase in the ability to differentiate emotions is linked to decrease in the use of suppression. In those who experience them with lower intensity, emotional differentiation does not predict the use of suppression. The use of reappraisal increases with increase in emotional differentiation, regardless of the level of intensity of negative emotions.
