| description | Introduction
Emotional complexity involves greater emotional awareness and understanding and associates strongly with adaptive emo-tion regulation. Similarly, regulation of emotion is vital for achieving, restoring, and sustaining subjective well-being. The present study, therefore, tested the mediatory role of emotion regulatory processes in the relationship between emotional complexity and subjective well-being.
Participants and procedure
A total of 285 participants completed self-report measures of emotional complexity, emotion regulation, positive/negative affect, and life satisfaction, and the data were analyzed using correlations and structural equation modelling.
Results
Findings indicated that individuals high in emotional complexity experience greater subjective well-being. Moreover, the results revealed that reappraisal mediated the relationship of emotion differentiation with positive affect and life satisfac-tion whereas suppression mediated the relationship between the range of emotions and life satisfaction.
Conclusions
These findings underscore the significance of emotion regulation in mediating the relationship between emotional complexi-ty and subjective well-being. |
