“…In the selection stage, a person now considers their available emotion regulation strategy options (e.g., Gross, ; Niven, Totterdell, & Holman, ; Parkinson & Totterdell, ) and features of the world that may affect their desired strategy choice (e.g., emotional intensity; Sheppes et al, ; cognitive resources; Gyurak, Goodkind, Kramer, Miller, & Levenson, ; P). People will vary in the extent to which they typically consider a wide range of ER strategies (Blanke et al, ; De France & Hollenstein, ; Eldesouky & English, ) or specific ER strategies (e.g., Gross & John, ; Williams, Morelli, Ong, & Zaki, ). After considering their strategy options, a person evaluates the utility of each strategy in light of his or her situation (V).…”

Goals are widely understood to be central to the initiation, maintenance, and cessation of emotion regulation (ER). Recent studies have shown that there are profound individual differences in the types of ER goals people pursue and the extent to which they pursue them. Here, we highlight the importance of taking an individual difference approach to studying ER goals. First, we use the extended process model of ER to provide conceptual clarity on what ER goals are and describe the crucial role of goals in each stage of ER. We then identify five promising directions for future research using an individual difference approach to ER goals.

Emotion regulation researchers often assume that global self-report questionnaires capture momentary emotion regulation processes that occur in everyday life; however, this assumption remains largely untested. To test this assumption, we analyzed data from 10 daily life studies (Total N = 1,198) in which participants reported their use of cognitive reappraisal, expressive suppression, and rumination using both global questionnaires and diary/experience sampling methods. We investigated three forms of global-momentary correspondence. First, we examined how global self-reports of emotion regulation correlated with the stable between-person component of momentary self-reports, labelled mean-level correspondence. Meta-analyses across studies revealed only weak (reappraisal) to moderate (suppression, rumination) mean-level correspondence. Second, we examined how global self-reports correlated with the degree to which momentary emotion regulation is contingent on preceding affect, which we label identification correspondence. Meta-analyses revealed that higher global rumination was associated with momentary use of all three strategies that wasless contingent on preceding negative affect intensity. Finally, we investigated how global self-reports correlated with the effect of momentary regulation on subsequent affect, labelled implementation correspondence. Meta-analyses revealed that higher global reappraisal was associated with larger decreases in negative affect following momentary reappraisal. Taken together, our findings suggest that global self-reports do not always map clearly onto the stable trait component of momentary emotion regulation, but may instead reflect individual differences in the affective antecedents and consequences of emotion regulation.

“…. (Blanke et al, 2019): Using data from four experience-sampling studies, Blanke and colleagues investigated the importance of the context on ER. According to their results, ER strategies are not adaptive or maladaptive; instead, adaptiveness is the result of the variability in choosing strategies based on situational demands.…”

In recent decades, emotion regulation (ER) has been one of the most widely studied constructs within the psychological field. Nevertheless, laboratory experiments and retrospective assessments have been the two most common strands of ER research, thus leaving open several crucial questions about ER antecedents and consequences in daily life. Beyond traditional methods, ecological momentary assessment (EMA) has the potential to capture ER dynamics during the flow of daily experiences, in real-life settings and through repeated measurements. Here, we discuss what we currently know about ER antecedents and consequences. We will compare findings from previous literature to findings from EMA studies, pointing out both similarities and differences, as well as questions that can be answered better with the EMA approach.
