Description

Emotion regulation is necessary for psychological health. In recent years, especially, cognitive emotion regulation has attracted considerable attentions. The purpose of the present study was to develop a Japanese version of Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ), and to investigate whether the usage tendency of and the relation with psychological health of cognitive emotion regulation is determined by the intensity of negative emotion. In Study 1, Japanese-version CERQ was developed and examined its reliability and validity. In Study 2, first, it was revealed that all strategies except positive refocusing were significantly different in the use tendency. Under the low negative emotion condition, positive reappraisal, put into perspective, self-blame, and refocus on planning were frequently used. And then, multiple regression analysis showed that under the low negative emotion condition, positive reappraisal predicted lower anxiety and depression, but catastrophizing predicted higher anxiety and depression. In contrast, under the high negative emotion condition, rumination and catastrophizing predicted higher anxiety, and self-blame predicted higher depression. These indicated that the usage tendency of and the relation with psychological health of cognitive emotion regulation is determined by the intensity of negative emotion.
