Abstract
We investigated if the link between perceptions of emotion regulation (ER) difficulties and resting heart rate variability (HRV), a biomarker of well-being and ER abilities, might differ between Asian (AA) and European (EA) Americans. Significant moderation showed resting HRV was more strongly associated with ER-difficulties in AAs compared to EAs.
