Poster Session II

Keyword: Stress

Abstract: We examined emotion regulation (ER) variability's impact on negative affect (NA) using four EMA datasets from Germany, Belgium, and China (N = 70-202). Indices like Coefficient of Variation and Bray-Curtis dissimilarity predicted lower NA, highlighting the importance of relative and temporal ER variability in emotional well-being.
