A thesis is an aptitude test for students. The approval of the thesis is proof that the student has sufficient research and reporting skills to graduate but does not guarantee the quality of the research and the results of the research as such, and the thesis is therefore not necessarily suitable to be used as an academic source to refer to. If you would like to know more about the research discussed in this thesis and any publications based on it, to which you could refer, please contact the supervisor mentioned.
Abstract
Emotion regulation interventions could be beneficial for treating a multitude of symptoms e.g. anxiety and depression. A systematic review was performed to assess the effectiveness of emotion regulation interventions for increasing and prolonging positive emotions, and for decreasing negative emotions. Thirteen RCTs were assessed and combined to measure a pooled effect size. The found effect sizes show a small to moderate effect size for the emotion regulation interventions. Emotion regulation interventions seem effective for increasing and prolonging positive emotions, and for decreasing negative emotions. More research is necessary to gain better understanding of the application of ERT as a cognitive intervention tool, and of non-cognitive approaches to ERT.
