This study investigated the mediator role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies in the relationship between nature connectedness and stress. The stress levels of participants were measured using two different methods: a) perceived stress and b) cumulative cortisol levels, which were analyzed by using the 3 cm segment of hair closest to the scalp. One hundred twenty-three female college students aged between 18 and 25 years old were included in this study. After controlling the influence of negative reactivity as a temperamental characteristic, nature connectedness predicted adaptive emotion regulation strategies of emerging adults, which in turn predicted a decline in their perceived stress. However, nature connectedness was not linked to non-adaptive regulation strategies and hair cortisol concentration (HCC). These findings highlight the importance of investigating different features of stress and suggest the restorative power of nature connectedness, which particularly bolsters positive outcomes, such as adaptive regulation skills.

Trait Reappraisal Predicts Affective Reactivity to Daily Positive and Negative Events
Gunaydin, Gul; Selcuk, Emre; Ong, Anthony D. (Frontiers Media SA, 2016-6-28)
Past research on emotion regulation has provided evidence that cognitive reappraisal predicts reactivity to affective stimuli and challenge tests in laboratory settings. However, little is known about how trait reappraisal might contribute to affective reactivity to everyday positive and negative events. Using a large, life-span sample of adults (N = 1755), the present study addressed this important gap in the literature. Respondents completed a measure of trait reappraisal and reported on their daily exper...

Psychological distress among university students: the role of mindfulness, decentering, reappraisal and emotion regulation
Kaynakci, Fatma Zehra Unlu; Güneri, Oya (2022-02-01)
This study sheds light on the extent to which the five facets of mindfulness (observing, describing, acting with awareness, nonjudging, and nonreactivity), decentering, and reappraisal predict psychological distress via emotion regulation difficulties. The study sample is comprised of 620 undergraduate students (429 females and 191 males). The participants' ages range between 18 and 30 years (M-age = 21.88, SD = 1.68). Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed to test the proposed model, which explain...
