“…Six months later, participants completed another online survey lasting approximately 60 minutes assessing the extreme valuing of happiness and BD risk. Other measures not central to the present study were obtained during both surveys (for other articles discussing this dataset, see Gruber, Kogan, Quoidbach, & Mauss, 2013; Hopp et al, 2013; Hopp, Troy, & Mauss, 2011; Kogan, Gruber, Shallcross, Ford, & Mauss, 2013; Mauss, Troy, & LeBourgeois, 2013; Troy, Shallcross, Davis, & Mauss, 2013; Troy, Shallcross, & Mauss, 2013; Shallcross, Ford, Floerke, & Mauss, 2013). …”

While people who experience happiness tend to have better psychological health, people who value happiness to an extreme tend to have worse psychological health, including more depression. We propose that the extreme valuing of happiness may be a general risk factor for mood disturbances, both depressive and manic. To test this hypothesis, we examined the relationship between the extreme valuing of happiness and risk for, diagnosis of, and illness course for Bipolar Disorder (BD). Supporting our hypothesis, the extreme valuing of happiness was associated with a measure of increased risk for developing BD (Studies 1–2), increased likelihood of past diagnosis of BD (Studies 2–3), and worse prospective illness course in BD (Study 3), even when controlling for current mood symptoms (Studies 1–3). These findings indicate that the extreme valuing of happiness is associated with and even predicts BD. Taken together with previous evidence, these findings suggest that the extreme valuing of happiness is a general risk factor for mood disturbances. More broadly, what emotions people strive to feel may play a critical role in psychological health.

“…Acceptance is thought to allow individuals to nonjudgmentally engage with the full range of human experiences and promote increased self-awareness, self-compassion, and behavioral flexibility (Hayes & Wilson, 2003; Kashdan et al, 2006). Similarly, the nonjudgment aspect of acceptance is thought to decrease the metacognitions that often accompany negative mood states—that is, one’s negative evaluations of his or her emotions—which may, in turn, help to diffuse negative affective states (Keng, Smoski, & Robins, 2016; Troy, Shallcross, Davis, & Mauss, 2013). …”

Two emotion regulation strategies—cognitive reappraisal and acceptance—are both associated with beneficial psychological health outcomes over time. However, it remains unclear whether these 2 strategies are associated with differential consequences for emotion, physiology, or perceived cognitive costs in the short-term. The present study used a within-subjects design to examine the effects of reappraisal (reframing one’s thoughts) and acceptance (accepting feelings without trying to control or judge them) on the subjective experience of negative emotions, positive emotions, and physiological responses during and following recovery from sad film clips shown in the laboratory. Participants also reported on perceived regulatory effort, difficulty, and success after deploying each emotion regulation strategy. In 2 samples of participants (N = 142), reappraisal (vs. acceptance) was associated with larger decreases in negative and larger increases in positive emotions, both during the film clips and recovery period. However, acceptance was perceived as less difficult to deploy than reappraisal, and was associated with a smaller dampening of skin conductance level (indicating more successful regulation) during the film clips in 1 sample. These results suggest that reappraisal and acceptance may exert differential short-term effects: Whereas reappraisal is more effective for changing subjective experiences in the short term, acceptance may be less difficult to deploy and be more effective at changing one’s physiological response. Thus, these 2 strategies may both be considered “effective” for different reasons.

“…Beliefs about emotion also contribute to strategy choice. Being accepting of feelings (Troy, Shallcross, Davis, & Mauss, 2013), believing that changing emotions is worthwhile (Veilleux, Salomaa, Shaver, Zielinski, & Pollert, 2015), and believing that emotions can be changed (De Castella et al, 2013;Schroder, Dawood, Yalch, Donnellan, & Moser, 2015), are associated with more frequent use of reappraisal, though the directionality of these relationships is not clear (Kneeland, Nolen-Hoeksema, Dovidio, & Gruber, 2016). Believing that emotions narrow an individual's choices is associated with greater use of expressive suppression (Veilleux et al, 2015).…”
