Abstract
This study aimed to identify profiles of cognitive emotion regulation strategies and to examine the association between emotion regulation profiles and depressive symptoms using a sample of healthcare workers under the impact of COVID-19. A total of 3477 Chinese healthcare workers participated in the online survey. Latent profile analysis was used to identify cognitive regulation patterns using nine strategies. Depressive symptoms were compared among cognitive regulation patterns. The results yielded three cognitive emotion regulation patterns: regulators with low controllability of emotions and events (RLCEE, 65.5%), regulators with high controllability of emotions and events (RHCEE, 33.0%) and high regulators (HR, 5.4%). The HRs reported the highest level of depression symptoms, followed by the RHCEEs and RLCEEs. The results illustrated a significant association between depressive symptoms and emotion regulation profiles in healthcare workers under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
期刊介绍:
Stress is a normal component of life and a number of mechanisms exist to cope with its effects. The stresses that challenge man"s existence in our modern society may result in failure of these coping mechanisms, with resultant stress-induced illness. The aim of the journal therefore is to provide a forum for discussion of all aspects of stress which affect the individual in both health and disease.
The Journal explores the subject from as many aspects as possible, so that when stress becomes a consideration, health information can be presented as to the best ways by which to minimise its effects.
