Integrating emotion beliefs and emotion regulation into the pathwayfrom emotional awareness to affective distress
People develop distinct relationships with their emotions based on the varied ways they experience, view, and regulate their emotions. In turn, this may affect individuals' mental health outcomes. Several constructs concerning these emotion processes, such as emotional awareness, emotion beliefs, and emotion regulation, can offer insights to understand these relations. However, despite their intuitive connections, these three types of constructs …
Emotion Acceptance Questionnaire (EAQ)
Emotion acceptance is defined as the willingness to experience pleasant and unpleasant emotions. Extant research suggests that emotion acceptance—and its converse, emotion nonacceptance or rejection—importantly contributes to experiences of negative affect, symptoms of psychopathology, and physiological markers of emotional responding. However, no validated measurement scale is available in English for assessing emotion acceptance. The current re…
Beliefs about emotion usefulness are nuanced
531) replicated these findings and employed confirmatory factor analyses to psychometrically assess the distinctiveness of these emotion belief dimensions. Evaluating a two-factor model, four-factor model, and three-factor bifactor model, results showed that both the four-factor and bifactor models fit the data well, whereas the two-factor model did not. These findings suggest that beliefs about emotion in general and beliefs about one's own emot…

Effects of emotion, emotional tolerance, and emotional processing on reasoning
Emotion plays a significant role in our reasoning even without awareness, perhaps especially for individuals who have difficulties tolerating strong, negative emotions. Opportunity for reflection may help such individuals decide when emotions should influence reasoning. Two studies attempted to clarify the relationships among reasoning, emotions, and emotion tolerance (measured with the Affect Intolerance Scale). The first examined the effect of …
The Last Word
Findings provide neurophysiological support for the shift in older adults' responses to death-related stimuli found in other TMT research as well as studies reporting reduced explicit death anxiety in older adults. Results also highlight the importance of considering stimuli content in studies of attention and emotion
The effects of facial attractiveness and perceiver's mate value on adaptive allocation of central processing resources
Can older adults resist the positivity effect in neural responding? The impact of verbal framing on event-related brain potentials elicited by emotional images
Older adults have demonstrated an avoidance of negative information, presumably with a goal of greater emotional satisfaction. Understanding whether avoidance of negative information is a voluntary, motivated choice or an involuntary, automatic response will be important to differentiate, as decision making often involves emotional factors. With the use of an emotional framing event-related potential (ERP) paradigm, the present study investigated…
