Abstract

|
This study investigated whether the relationship between affect intensity and psychological health was mediated by emotion regulation strategies, controlling for sex and age. Affect Intensity Measure, Symptom Checklist-Revised, and Emotion Regulation Strategy Questionnaire were implemented to 500 adults. Partial correlational analysis indicated that negative affect intensity correlated positively with Global Severity Index and nine subscales such as somatization, obsession-compulsion, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, paranoid ideation, and psychoticism. Negative affect intensity correlated positively with maladaptive strategies and negatively with adaptive strategies. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that negative affect intensity significantly influenced on psychological health, maladaptive strategies and adaptive strategies. A bootstrap approach was used to test the mediation effect of maladaptive and adaptive strategies. The results showed that maladaptive and adaptive strategies mediated the influence of negative affect intensity on psychological health. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.
