Abstract

This study investigates the links between self-objectification and emotion regulation in sexual minority men (SMM) and heterosexual men (HM) across age groups. Overall, self-objectification was significantly higher for SMM than HM, and the relationship between self-objectification and emotion regulation presented differently between SMM and HM, and also between age groups.
