Abstract: Individuals of all ages use different emotion regulation strategies (e.g., situation selection, suppression, reappraisal) according to their available internal resources. As cognitive capacities (e.g., prospection, inhibition, working memory) improve with age, this study explores how changes to those resources shape the frequency of emotion regulation strategy use through adolescence.
