초록

High levels of emotional suppression are generally associated with poor psychological health and psychopathological symp- toms. However, cross-cultural studies have yielded mixed results, with suppression sometimes associated with positive out- comes in certain contexts. To address these inconsistencies, we examined whether emotion regulation goals moderate the re- lationship between suppression and psychological well-being. Data were gathered online from 368 college and graduate stu- dents at universities in Korea. The results revealed that contra-hedonic goals and instrumental goals significantly moderated the relationship, with higher levels of contra-hedonic and instrumental regulation goals attenuating the negative effects of suppression on psychological well-being. It is noteworthy that individuals who flexibly use emotional suppression in accor- dance with their goals may experience better psychological outcomes and various secondary benefits. These findings under- score the importance of considering the motivational aspects of emotion regulation to explain individual differences in the effects of emotional suppression on psychological health.

Abstract

High levels of emotional suppression are generally associated with poor psychological health and psychopathological symp- toms. However, cross-cultural studies have yielded mixed results, with suppression sometimes associated with positive out- comes in certain contexts. To address these inconsistencies, we examined whether emotion regulation goals moderate the re- lationship between suppression and psychological well-being. Data were gathered online from 368 college and graduate stu- dents at universities in Korea. The results revealed that contra-hedonic goals and instrumental goals significantly moderated the relationship, with higher levels of contra-hedonic and instrumental regulation goals attenuating the negative effects of suppression on psychological well-being. It is noteworthy that individuals who flexibly use emotional suppression in accor- dance with their goals may experience better psychological outcomes and various secondary benefits. These findings under- score the importance of considering the motivational aspects of emotion regulation to explain individual differences in the effects of emotional suppression on psychological health.
