Instead of merely suggesting regulatory strategies to others, social emotion regulators pursue strategies to change the nature, duration, or intensity of the emotional experience and expression of a target individual.
Sep 7, 2024 · Going forward, we encourage emotion regulation scholars to more clearly delineate and define different types of social goals that may motivate or guide emotion regulation (see Table 1), and, as elaborated in the next section, study when (e.g., in what situations) individuals use social regulation vs. self-regulation to attain social goals.
Additionally, experience sampling methods could be used to investigate whether emotion regulation goals predict daily changes in personality, as do goals in broader domains (e.g., McCabe & Fleeson, 2006). Fifth, implications of the links between the Big Five and emotion regulation goals for regulatory behavior and well-being should be explored.

Emotion regulation goals can take many forms. They involve the way in which the person is trying to change their emotions (i.e., amplify or dampen positive or negative emotion) an...
The present research was focused on emotion regulation strategy selection in daily life. In particular, we tested the role of two factors in predicting strategy use: (1) The social context (i.e., who is present), and (2) the emotion regulation goals being pursed (i.e., hedonic or instrumental goals, pro-hedonic or contra-hedonic regulation).
