Expressive flexibility (EF), the ability to enhance and suppress emotional expressions, predicts decreases in anxiety and depression symptoms years later (Bonanno, Papa, Lalande, Westphal, & Coifman, 2004). Bonanno and Burton (2013) proposed that knowing the most appropriate strategy for a situation (context sensitivity; CS), and awareness of how well strategies are working (feedback sensitivity; FS), partially explain this effect. We conducted a conditional process analysis to test this theory. One hundred thirty-eight undergraduates completed a behavioral measure of EF and self-reported symptoms of anxiety and depression, CS, and FS over one month. CS moderated the effect of EF on one-month changes in symptoms of anxiety and depression (p = .03): EF only predicted decreased anxiety and depression symptoms among people low in CS. FS mediated the effect of EF (95% CI: -.10, -.01) on changes in anxiety and depression symptoms: higher baseline EF was associated with higher two-week FS, which predicted decreased one-month anxiety and depression symptoms. Results suggest EF and CS may be compensatory skills and FS may be necessary to experience the adaptive effects of emotion regulation flexibility.

评估情绪表达的柔韧性与焦虑和抑郁症状之间的关系:情境敏感性和反馈敏感性的作用。

表现性柔韧性(EF)是增强和抑制情绪表达的能力,可预测数年后焦虑和抑郁症状的减轻(Bonanno,Papa,Lalande,Westphal和Coifman,2004年)。Bonanno和Burton(2013)提出,了解最适合情况的策略(上下文敏感度; CS),以及对策略效果如何的意识(反馈敏感度; FS),可以部分解释这种影响。我们进行了条件过程分析以检验该理论。138名大学生在一个月内完成了EF行为测量以及自我报告的焦虑和抑郁,CS和FS症状。CS缓解了EF对焦虑和抑郁症状一个月变化的影响(p = .03):EF仅预测了CS偏低人群中焦虑和抑郁症状的减轻。FS介导EF(95%CI:-.10,-.01)对焦虑和抑郁症状变化的影响:基线EF升高与两周FS升高相关,这预示着一个月的焦虑和抑郁症状会减少。结果表明,EF和CS可能是补偿技能,而FS可能是体验情绪调节灵活性的适应性影响所必需的。
