Many individuals in the general population experience psychotic-like experiences in the absence of a psychotic disorder. The degree of psychological distress associated with these experiences is a key predictor of clinical outcomes. One factor that may influence the degree of distress from psychotic-like experiences is emotion regulation. Although it has been demonstrated that emotion regulation deficits are present in psychotic disorders, the association between emotion regulation and subclinical psychotic-like experiences is not well understood. Here, we examined the associations between frequency of and distress from psychotic-like experiences and several key components of emotion regulation: difficulties with emotion regulation; emotion regulation self-efficacy; and emotion regulation strategy use. Difficulties with emotion regulation and maladaptive patterns of emotion regulation strategy use were associated with the frequency of both positive and negative psychotic-like experiences. In addition, results suggest that habitual acceptance use and reappraisal self-efficacy may serve as protective factors against the distress associated with psychotic-like experiences.
许多普通人群在没有精神障碍的情况下也会经历类似精神病的体验。这些体验所伴随的心理困扰程度是临床结局的一个关键预测因素。可能影响类似精神病体验困扰程度的一个因素是情绪调节。尽管已经证明在精神障碍中存在情绪调节缺陷,但情绪调节与亚临床类似精神病体验之间的关系尚不清楚。在这里,我们研究了类似精神病体验的频率和困扰程度与情绪调节的几个关键成分之间的关联:情绪调节困难;情绪调节自我效能;以及情绪调节策略的使用。情绪调节困难和情绪调节策略使用的适应不良模式与积极和消极类似精神病体验的频率都有关。此外,结果表明,习惯性接受使用和再评价自我效能可能是对抗类似精神病体验相关困扰的保护因素。
