People differ in how they regulate their emotions, and how they do so is guided by their beliefs about emotion. We propose that social power—one's perceived influence over others—relates to one's beliefs about emotion and to emotion regulation. More powerful people are characterized as authentic and uninhibited, which should translate to the belief that one should not have to control one's emotions and, in turn, less suppression and more acceptance. More powerful people are also characterized as self-efficacious and confident, which should translate to the belief that one can control one's emotions and, in turn, more reappraisal and acceptance.

社会权力的个体差异：与情绪和情绪调节信念的联系


人们调节情绪的方式各不相同，而他们的调节方式又受到他们对情绪的信念的指导。我们认为，社会权力——一个人对他人的感知影响——与一个人对情绪的信念和情绪调节有关。更有权力的人被认为是真实的和不羁的，这应该转化为一种信念，即一个人不应该控制自己的情绪，反过来，更少的压抑和更多的接受。更有权力的人也被认为是自我效能和自信的，这应该转化为相信一个人可以控制自己的情绪，进而获得更多的重新评估和接受。
