Emotion regulation is the process which influences the types of emotions people experience, as well as, when and how they express their emotions(Gross, 1998). Especially, maladaptive emotion regulation causes continuous failures of emotion regulation and this has an impact on one’s well-being. This study aims to examine the emotion regulation strategies in patients diagnosed with depressive and anxiety disorders. We also compare the emotion regulation process with regards to the levels of positive emotion, negative emotion, and happiness between the depressive and anxiety disorder patients group and asymptomatic control group. Finally, we tested the relationship between emotion regulation strategies, positive emotion, negative emotion and happiness in the patients group. There were 60 participants in the control group(male: 15, female: 45) and 51 depressive and anxiety disorder patients in the patients group(male: 23, female: 28). In the Depressive disorder patients group, cognitive reappraisal strategy was correlated to negative emotions. However, cognitive reappraisal strategy was correlated to positive emotion, in the anxiety disorder patients group. The happiness was related to reappraisal and positive emotions. Additionally, the patients group showed significantly lower levels of positive emotion, happiness, reappraisal and higher levels of negative emotion than the control group. However, there was no difference in suppression between the two groups.
