Summary: This study examined the moderating role of adaptive and maladaptive emotion regulation in the relationship between general perceived stress and depressive symptoms during the COVID-19 lockdown in Belgium. The results showed that maladaptive emotion regulation significantly moderated the relationship between perceived stress and depressive symptoms, indicating the importance of supporting adolescents in adaptively coping with intense stressful events.

Summary: Guided by the broaden-and-build model, this study examined the role of parental and child positivity in supporting children's self-regulation. The findings suggest that parents' socialization of positive emotion is related to children's own low-intensity positive emotion and their self-regulation during early childhood.

Summary: This study examines the psychological well-being of university students in Hong Kong under the COVID-19 pandemic and social event stress. The results show positive relationships between both types of stress and depressive symptoms, and negative relationships between positive psychological factors and depression. Positive psychological attributes moderate the effects of stress on depression, highlighting their importance as protective factors for university students' mental health.

Summary: This study investigates neural regulation abnormalities in remitted patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and their association with emotion regulation problems in daily life. The findings show lower activation and different temporal dynamics in certain brain regions during passive attendance of emotional material and during explicit upregulation of positive emotions in remitted MDD patients. Behaviorally, these patients exhibit dysfunctional regulation strategies in daily life. The results suggest that regulatory abnormalities persist after remission, especially in uninstructed situations and daily life, and that inadequate rumination is associated with brain activity during emotion regulation.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between emotional invalidation and depression, as well as the role of emotion regulation in this association. The findings showed that emotion communication and rumination partially mediated the relationship between perceived emotional invalidation and depression. Additionally, emotion suppression only acted as a mediator for individuals with higher levels of attachment avoidance.

Summary: This study found that individuals with physical disability had shorter telomere length (TL) and higher levels of perceived stress and depression compared to able-bodied controls. Both perceived stress and depression were correlated with shorter TL, with perceived stress moderating the relationship between disability and TL. Individuals with physical disability and higher perceived stress levels had shorter TL.

Summary: This study using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) found that depression is associated with positive emotion regulation in daily life. Higher momentary positive emotion was related to more positive rumination and less dampening use. Elevated depressive symptoms were linked to lower use of positive rumination and higher use of dampening, without modulating the relationship between positive emotion and emotion regulation strategy use.

Summary: The negative emotions following stressful life events can increase the risk of depressive symptoms and perceived stress. The process model of emotion regulation helps distinguish adaptive and maladaptive strategies to determine who may be at a higher risk of psychological health problems. Heart rate variability (HRV) may affect these relationships as it measures aspects of self-regulation, including emotion and behavioral regulation. The study found that higher vagally mediated HRV can buffer the adverse effects of expressive suppression on depressive symptoms, and weakly for perceived stress. There was no evidence for an interaction between cognitive reappraisal and HRV, but there was a significant negative association between cognitive reappraisal and depressive symptoms and perceived stress. Future research can investigate whether intervening on emotion regulation strategies or HRV can change these individual characteristics over time.

Summary: Individual differences in positive affect (PA) are related to various developmental outcomes. This study examined the associations between youth depressive symptoms and the implementation and effectiveness of enhancing and dampening regulation. The findings suggest that youth reporting more depressive symptoms engage in greater dampening of PA, but the effectiveness of up- and down-regulation strategies is not different among early adolescents experiencing elevated levels of depression.

Summary: This study aims to examine the role of emotion regulation in mental health symptoms among treatment-seeking individuals with fibromyalgia. The results show associations between fibromyalgia symptoms, psychological distress, and emotion regulation. Difficulties in emotion regulation partially explain the connection between fibromyalgia symptoms and psychological distress.

Summary: This study examines the association between perceived stress and depressive symptoms among recent Latino/a immigrants in the U.S., and the moderating effects of emotion regulation and dispositional mindfulness. The findings suggest that greater perceived stress and cognitive reappraisal are associated with higher levels of depressive symptoms. Lower levels of appraisal and higher levels of non-reactivity mindfulness strengthen the association between perceived stress and depressive symptoms. Culturally tailored interventions that address emotion regulation and dispositional mindfulness may be beneficial in managing stress and reducing depressive symptoms among recent Latino/a immigrants.
