Abstract: We examined the relationship between social support, emotion regulation suppression, and sleep quality in 216 undergraduates (Mage = 20.7). Social support predicted reduced emotion suppression (b = -0.053, p = .001), which worsened sleep quality (b = 0.037, p = .003). Mediation analysis revealed a small but significant indirect effect.
