Emotion regulation and the temporal dynamics of emotions: Effects of cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression on emotional inertia KU Leuven
The tendency for emotions to be predictable over time, labelled emotional inertia, has been linked to low well-being and is thought to reflect impaired emotion regulation. However, almost no studies have examined how emotion regulation relates to emotional inertia. We examined the effects of cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression on the inertia of behavioural, subjective and physiological measures of emotion. In Study 1 (N = 111), ...
Distinguishing dimensions of emotion dynamics across 12 emotions in adolescents' daily lives KU Leuven
Research on emotion dynamics as indices of emotion functioning has become muddled by conceptual confusion, methodological heterogeneity, and seemingly conflicting results. One way to address this chaos is the study of profiles of emotion dynamics across 12 emotions and how they differ between 246 adolescents. The interpretation of these dynamic profiles was guided by auxiliary variables including age, personality, depressive symptoms, and social ...
Inertia of negative emotions at work: Correlates of inflexible emotion dynamics in the workplace KU Leuven
Interpersonal emotion dynamics in couples with somatic symptom disorder: Dyadic coherence in facial temperature during emotional interactions KU Leuven
OBJECTIVE: Disturbances in emotional processes are commonly reported in patients with a somatic symptom disorder (SSD). Although emotions usually occur in social interactions, little is known about interpersonal emotion dynamics of SSD patients during their actual emotional encounters. This study examined physiological coherence (linkage) between SSD patients and their partners, and in healthy couples during their emotional interactions. ...
The dynamical signature of anhedonia in major depressive disorder: Positive emotion dynamics, reactivity, and recovery. KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is the leading cause of disability worldwide. The cardinal features of MDD are depressed mood and anhedonia. Anhedonia is defined as a "markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities of the day", and has generally been investigated on group-level using retrospective data (e.g. via questionnaire/interview). However, inferences based on group-level findings not necessarily ...
Introducing change point detection analyses in relationship research : an investigation of couples’ emotion dynamics Ghent University KU Leuven
Emotion dynamics in intimate relationships : the roles of interdependence and perceived partner responsiveness Ghent University
Emotions are not only fundamentally dynamic in nature in the sense of varying across time, but they are also fundamentally social, originating in and shaping our interpersonal processes. Interpersonal emotion dynamics refer to the ways in which emotions and emotional self-regulation are dynamically influenced by interactional partners, given the interdependence that exists between them. We begin this chapter by describing the premise for ...
