| Summary: | This commentary addresses Gross’s formulation of emotion regulation and its limits. According to his definition, emotion regulation covers a heterogeneous variety of cognitive and behavioral operations, some of which share important features with processes falling outside the specified conceptual domain, leading to possible boundary disputes. Further, Gross’s extended process model (EPM) excludes some forms of co-regulation whose investigation may clarify the operation of intrapsychic regulation. EPM helps to distinguish different regulatory targets and functions, but understanding underlying processes may require tighter and more focused distinctions. |
