Abstract:
Emotional regulation (ER) as a concept is not clearly defined, and there is a lack of clarity about how individuals can improve their ability to regulate emotions. Nevertheless, there is increasing evidence of the importance of ER as a transdiagnostic treatment target across mental health problems. This review examines the impact of ER group interventions on ER ability compared with no intervention, other comparable group interventions, or control conditions. A systematic review was conducted, in which 15 studies were included. Although types of ER intervention were mixed, the interventions had a considerable overlap in skills taught and how ER was measured. In all but one study, the ER intervention improved ER ability. ER interventions were superior to waitlist or treatment as usual, but there was limited evidence to suggest they were superior to other active treatments. Data from some studies suggest that improved ER was sustained at follow-up. Across the studies, there was generally poor linking of theory to practice, which hampers understanding of how interventions were constructed and why different skills were included. Although the results need to be interpreted with caution due to issues with methodological quality with the included papers, there is promising evidence that ER group interventions significantly improve ER ability.
摘要:
情绪调节(ER)作为一个概念没有明确的定义,人们对如何提高他们调节情绪的能力缺乏清晰的认识。然而,越来越多的证据表明ER作为精神健康问题的综合诊断治疗目标的重要性.这篇综述研究了与不干预相比,ER组干预对ER能力的影响。其他可比的团体干预措施,或控制条件。进行了系统的审查,其中包括15项研究。尽管ER干预的类型参差不齐,干预措施在教授的技能和如何测量ER方面存在相当大的重叠.除了一项研究,ER干预提高了ER能力。ER干预优于候诊者或照常治疗,但有限的证据表明它们优于其他积极治疗。一些研究的数据表明,在随访中ER的改善是持续的。在整个研究中,理论与实践的联系普遍很差,这阻碍了对干预措施是如何构建的以及为什么包括不同技能的理解。尽管由于纳入论文的方法学质量问题,需要谨慎解释结果,有有希望的证据表明ER组干预显著改善了ER能力.
