“…Among the included articles, there was a significant positive correlation between adolescents' DERS total scores and their severity of problematic smartphone use ( Amendola, Spensieri, Guidetti, & Cerutti, 2019 ; Coco et al., 2020 ; Domoff, Sutherland, Yokum, & Gearhardt, 2020 ; Giordano, Coco, Salemo, & Biasi, 2020 ; Mancinelli, Sharka, Lai, Sgaravatti, & Salcuni, 2021 ) and problematic Internet use ( Amendola et al., 2019 ; Anita, András, & Bernadette, 2014 ; Casale et al., 2016 ; Estévez, Jáuregui, Sánchez-Marcos, López-González, & Griffiths, 2017 ; Faghani, Akbari, Hasani, & Marino, 2019 ; Gutiérrez, Fernández, Gonzalvo, & Bilbao, 2014 ; Günaydın, Arıcı, Kutlu, & Demir, 2021 ; Kafali et al., 2020 ; Kim & Chun, 2016 ; Love, May, Shafer, Fincham, & Cui, 2022 ; Mo, Chan, Chan, & Lau, 2018 ; Qi, 2019 ; Sertbaş et al., 2020 ; Uçur & Dönmez, 2021 ; Wang & Qi, 2017 ; Yorulmaz, Civgin, & Yorulmaz, 2020 ). The DERS was developed by Gratz and Roemer (2004) to measure emotion dysregulation.…”

Background and aims We aimed to systematically identify, evaluate and summarize the research on adolescent emotion dysregulation and problematic technology use. We critically appraise strengths and limitations and provide recommendations for future research. Methods We followed the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and conducted a systematic review of published original reports on adolescent emotion dysregulation and problematic technology use published until March 1, 2022. A thorough search preceded the selection of studies matching prespecified criteria. Strengths and limitations of selected studies, regarding design and reporting, were identified based on current best practices. Results 39 studies met inclusion criteria. All of these studies provided on the relationship between adolescent emotion dysregulation and problematic technology use severity based on self-report data. Discussion There was a positive correlation between adolescent emotion dysregulation and the severity of problematic technology use. Beyond this, other variables (such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, etc.) were also closely related to emotion dysregulation and problematic technology use. Such studies are of importance to better understand cause-effect relations regarding both variables.

“…These psychological states detrimentally affect adolescents' development of effortful control. Previous research has corroborated the negative association between parental psychological control and adolescent effortful control, highlighting the detrimental impact of family dynamics on self-regulatory capacities [21]. Conversely, effortful control serves as a protective factor against NSSI in Chinese adolescents.…”

“…Effortful control, a component of self-control [20], is susceptible to the effects of family risk factors, such as parental con ict. Frequent and intense parental con ict, which disrupts family cohesion, often leads to negative emotions and increased emotional distress and insecurity in adolescents [21]. These psychological states detrimentally affect adolescents' development of effortful control.…”

Background This study aims to investigate the longitudinal relationship and underlying mechanism of cumulative family risk on Chinese adolescents’ non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Methods A total of 891 adolescents participated in a follow-up study with a 12-month interval, during which the Cumulative Family Risk Questionnaire, Effortful Control Scale, Zhong-Yong Thinking Style Scale, and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Scale were administered. Result The results indicated that: (1) cumulative family risk significantly and positively predicted NSSI in adolescents; (2) effortful control longitudinally mediated the relationship between cumulative family risk and NSSI among adolescents; and (3) the direct effect of cumulative family risk on NSSI in adolescents, as well as the initial phase of the mediating effect of effortful control, were moderated by Zhong-Yong thinking style. Furthermore, both the direct and indirect effects were moderated by Zhong-Yong thinking style, particularly in Chinese adolescents with low levels of Zhong-Yong thinking style, where the effects were weaker. Conclusion This study sheds light on the relationship between cumulative family risk, effortful control, and NSSI in Chinese adolescents, highlighting the moderating role of Zhong-Yong thinking style. These findings provide empirical support for the development of preventive strategies aimed at addressing NSSI among Chinese adolescents in the future.

“…It has been well established that interparental conflict, as a pivotal metric of marital relationships, contributes to internalizing and externalizing problems in children and adolescents (Qi, 2021 ; Ran et al, 2021 ). Both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies have consistently supported the association between interparental conflict and adolescents’ adjustment problems, including depressive symptoms (Asanjarani et al, 2022 ; Luo et al, 2023 ).…”

A notable ambiguity persists concerning whether distinct forms of parent-child triangulation (unstable coercive coalition, stable coalition, detouring-attacking, detouring supportive, parentification) might mediate the association between interparental conflict and early adolescent depressive symptoms similarly within the context of Chinese Confucianism. Filling this research gap, this study aimed to examine the mediating role of the five dimensions of parent-child triangulation in the association between interparental conflict and early adolescent depressive symptoms, as well as the moderating effect of grandparent support on this mediating pathway. Data were drawn from a sample of 761 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 12.82 ± 0.47, 49.1% girls). Structural equation model analyses indicated that unstable coercive coalition, stable coalition, and detouring-attacking behaviors partially mediated the association between interparental conflict and adolescent depressive symptoms, while detouring-supportive behaviors and parentification did not demonstrate such mediating effects. Unlike Western societies, a negative correlation was observed between interparental conflict and parentification in the context of China. Grandparent support mitigated the adverse effects of both interparental conflict and the unstable coercive coalition on early adolescent depressive symptoms.
