About this study

In plain language

This study is for people who have trouble managing their emotions. It tests whether skills chosen for each person or a standard set of skills better reduce the strength of daily negative feelings. It also tests whether matching people to skills predicted to work best for them is possible and helpful.

The proposed study is designed to first test whether teaching people personalized or standardized emotion regulation skills leads to greater decreases in daily negative emotion intensity. Second, using data from an initial sample, the investigators will prospectively assign an independent sample of participants to receive their predicted optimal or non-optimal skills to determine if it is feasible and efficacious to match participants to the most appropriate training condition. Results of these studies may identify the mechanisms by which emotion regulation interventions impact emotional functioning and allow for the development of personalized, evidence-based, and scalable emotion regulation interventions.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
