The efficacy of stress reappraisal interventions on stress responsivity: A meta-analysis and systematic review of existing evidence

Abstract: Background The beliefs we hold about stress play an important role in coping with stressors. Various theoretical frameworks of stress point to the efficacy of reframing stress-related information through brief reappraisal interventions in order to promote adaptive coping. Purpose The goal of the current meta-analysis and systematic review is to substantiate the efficacy of reappraisal interventions on stress responsivity compared to control conditions. Differences in ex… Show more

“…Cognitive reappraisal refers to deliberately viewing an emotionally evocative event from a different perspective and reinterpreting its meaning, thereby changing its emotional impact (e.g., Gross & John, 2003;Lazarus & Folkman, 1984). A recent meta-analysis corroborated the power of cognitive reappraisal for dealing with stressful events, finding positive effects of reappraisal interventions on subjective stress perception (Liu, Ein, Gervasio, & Vickers, 2019, also see Webb, Miles, & Sheeran, 2012). For physical activity and stress regulation, it is proposed that a persons' physical activity may facilitate more adaptive emotion regulation in critical contexts (Bernstein, Curtiss, Wu, Barreira, & McNally, 2018;Bernstein & McNally, 2017;Shields, Matt, & Coifman, 2016).…”

“…These perspectives each propose two adaptive strategies that alter individuals' perspectives on stress and are likely to be highly effective in stress management: stress reappraisals and stress mindsets. Together, these strategies aim to alter the received perspective that stress is negative and leads to maladaptive outcomes including poorer health, reduced functioning, and impaired performance on tasks (A. W. Brooks, 2014; Crum, Akinola, Martin, & Fath, 2017; Crum et al, 2013; Jamieson et al, 2016; Jamieson, Mendes, Blackstock, & Schmader, 2010; Jamieson, Nock, & Mendes, 2013; Liu, Ein, Gervasio, & Vickers, 2019). Such approaches contrast with the majority of stress‐management strategies that typically aim to minimize the frequency or magnitude of felt stress and anxiety (Clough et al, 2017; Hagger & Stevenson, 2010; WHO, 2020).…”

“…Such interventions are proposed to be particularly effective in contexts where the source of stress cannot be avoided and, therefore, represents a viable and adaptive alternative to strategies focused on reducing stress intensity. Stress reappraisal interventions usually involve the presentation of scenarios highlighting that stress can be effective in promoting better coping and performance, and have been shown to be effective in reducing acute stress responses and improved performance in contexts such as work and academic performance (A. W. Brooks, 2014; Jamieson et al, 2010, 2013, 2016; Jones, Hanton, & Swain, 1994; Liu et al, 2017, 2019).…”

“…Indeed, a growing body of evidence from the emotion regulation and intervention literatures provides support for the idea that acute stress responses and performance outcomes can, indeed, be improved by modifying appraisal processes (Beltzer, Nock, Peters, & Jamieson, 2014;Brady, Hard, & Gross, 2018;Hangen et al, 2019;Jamieson, Mendes, Blackstock, & Schmader, 2010;Jamieson, Nock, & Mendes, 2012Jamieson, Peters, Greenwood, & Altose, 2016;John-Henderson, Rheinschmidt, & Mendoza-Denton, 2015;Liu, Ein, Gervasio, & Vickers, 2019;Moore, Vine, Wilson, & Freeman, 2015;Rozek, Ramirez, Fine, & Beilock, 2019;Sammy et al, 2017;Yeager, Lee, & Jamieson, 2016).…”
