Introduction: Researchers have examined how several contexts impact the effectiveness of emotion regulation strategies. However, few have considered the emotion-to-be-regulated as a context of interest. Specific emotions are important contexts because they may require particular responses to internal and external stimuli for optimal regulation. Method: Ninety-two undergraduates completed 10 days of ecological momentary assessment, reporting their current mood, recent emotions, and emotion regulation strategies three times per day. Results: The frequency with which certain emotion regulation strategies were used (i.e., acceptance, positive refocusing, reappraisal, problem-solving, and other-blame) differed by the specific emotion experienced. Acceptance and positive refocusing were associated with better mood regardless of emotion, while substance use was associated with worse mood regardless of emotion. Reappraisal was associated with better mood in response to anger than anxiety or sadness, while emotional suppression and other-blame were associated with worse mood in response to anger. Discussion: These results suggest some emotion regulation strategies exhibit emotion-invariant effects while others depend on the emotion-to-be-regulated.

This study used ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to measure positive and negative affect among people who inject drugs (PWID), and examined associations with borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptoms and difficulties with emotion regulation, in the context of injection drug use. We recruited PWID, age 18-35, through syringe exchange program sites in Chicago, Illinois, USA. After completing a baseline interview including a screener for BPD and the Difficulties with Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), participants used a mobile phone app to report mood, substance use, and injection behavior for two weeks. Participants who completed at least two EMA assessments were included in the analysis (N = 161). The mean age was 30, about one-third were women, 63% were non-Hispanic white, and 23% were Hispanic. In multivariable mixed effects regression models, positive BPD screen was associated with greater momentary negative affect (NA) intensity, and greater instability of both NA and positive affect (PA). Independent of BPD screening status, DERS score was associated positively with momentary NA intensity and instability, and negatively with positive affect (PA) intensity. This finding suggests that emotion dysregulation is an appropriate target for assessment and intervention. While concurrent withdrawal was associated with both greater NA and less PA, opioid intoxication was associated only with greater PA. We did not find support for our hypothesis that emotion dysregulation would moderate the effect of withdrawal on NA. Findings support the validity of the EMA mood measure and the utility of studying mood and behavior among PWID using EMA on mobile phones.

Adolescence is a vulnerable period for depressive and anxious symptom development, and emotion regulation (ER) may be one mechanism linking temperament—i.e., positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA)—with such symptomatology. Rumination is a common ER strategy that is traditionally assessed using self-reported questionnaires, but it would also be interesting to examine it with an Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) approach. Sixty-five adolescents (Mage = 14.69; SDage = 0.82; range = 14–17 years old; 53.80% girls) completed self-report measures of temperament, ER style, depression and anxiety, and underwent an EMA to investigate rumination use. Results revealed that negative ER style and rumination use mediated the relationship between NA and depression, while only rumination use mediated the relationship between PA and depression. Moreover, NA contributed to increase anxiety, but negative ER style did not significantly mediate this relationship. Rumination use also had no effect on anxiety. This study provides further support for the relationship between temperament, ER, and internalizing problems. It seems that both a negative ER style and rumination use mediate the relationship between NA and depression whereas only NA had a significant direct effect on anxiety. Furthermore, PA buffered the effect of rumination use on depression in this study.
