BACKGROUND
Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) studies have begun to establish links between sexual minority enacted stigma and anxious/depressed affect at the daily level. However, few of these studies have examined the effects of the unique stigma experienced by transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people. Further, the potential moderating roles of emotion regulation strategies (i.e., strategies used to up- or down-regulate emotions) and coping self-efficacy (i.e., individuals' perceptions of their ability to cope effectively with stressors) have been neglected in EMA research on enacted stigma.
METHODS
The current study aimed to extend this literature by examining the moderating roles of six emotion regulation strategies (i.e., reflection, reappraisal, rumination, expressive suppression, distraction, social sharing) and coping self-efficacy on concurrent and prospective associations between TGD enacted stigma and affect using EMA data from 115 sexual minority gender diverse individuals assigned female at birth.
RESULTS
Results indicated that coping self-efficacy buffered prospective associations between TGD enacted stigma and anxious/depressed affect, while rumination exacerbated these effects. Some unexpected buffering effects were identified in concurrent associations between enacted stigma and negative affect, with suppression and distraction temporarily tempering this association. However, suppression also prospectively predicted increases in negative affect, suggesting that any benefit of this emotion regulation strategy is temporary.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings highlight emotion regulation strategies that may be effective in reducing negative affect, identify coping self-efficacy as a promising buffer of effects of enacted stigma, and confirm emotion regulation strategies that may exacerbate effects of enacted stigma.
背景
生态瞬时评估（EMA）研究已经开始在日常水平上建立性少数群体实施的污名与焦虑/抑郁情绪之间的联系。然而，这些研究中很少有研究检验跨性别和性别多样化（TGD）人群所经历的独特污名的影响。此外，在 EMA 对实施污名的研究中，情绪调节策略（即用于调节情绪的策略）和应对自我效能感（即个体对有效应对压力源的能力的感知）的潜在调节作用被忽视了。
方法
本研究旨在通过使用来自 115 名出生时被分配为女性的性少数性别多样化个体的 EMA 数据，检验六种情绪调节策略（即反思、重新评估、沉思、表达抑制、分心、社交分享）和应对自我效能感对 TGD 实施污名与情绪之间的同期和前瞻性关联的调节作用，从而扩展这一文献。
结果
结果表明，应对自我效能感缓冲了 TGD 实施污名与焦虑/抑郁情绪之间的前瞻性关联，而沉思则加剧了这些影响。在实施污名与消极情绪之间的同期关联中，发现了一些意想不到的缓冲效应，抑制和分心暂时缓和了这种关联。然而，抑制也前瞻性地预测了消极情绪的增加，这表明这种情绪调节策略的任何好处都是暂时的。
结论
研究结果强调了可能有助于减轻消极情绪的情绪调节策略，确定了应对自我效能感作为实施污名影响的有希望的缓冲剂，并证实了可能加剧实施污名影响的情绪调节策略。
