About this study
Official title: The Relationship Between Emotion Regulation and Psychiatric Disorder in Youth - From a Psychosocial Developmental Aspect.
According to the increasing worldwide prevalence rate of psychiatric disorders in youth, the mental health of youth is becoming more and more important.
Taiwan's Ministry of Health and Welfare reported the clibing suicide rate of youth in past five years and showed the prevention work and related intervention for youth's mental health was noteable. The definition of emotion regulation was "consists of the extrinsic and intrinsic processes responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and modifying emotional reactions, especially their intensive and temporal features, to accomplish one's goals." Emotion regulation strategies including "rumination", "avoidance", "suppression", "Problem-solving", "reappraisal", "acceptance", "social support", and "distraction".
Previous studies had examined the relationship between emotion regulation and mental health in youth; maladaptive emotion regulation would increase the individual's depressive and anxiety symptoms. Carstensen proposed social emotion theory in 1995 Selectivity theory (SST) refers to the need for emotion regulation, which activates Social participation in late adulthood. SST assumes that young people are more interested in social interaction behaviors related to information seeking and building self-concept. characteristics of youth affected by many normative challenges such as adolescence, school transitions, and more complex social Landscape; Adaptive emotion regulation will reduce risk of clinical emotion attacks of illness, especially depression and anxiety.To explore the relationship between emotion regulation and mental health from a psychosocial developmental aspect, we focused on the interaction between individual and environment. Compared with the previous generation, most youths of this generation were participating in social activities and building up interpersonal relationships through the internet, suggesting the internet was an important social context.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The Difference and Similarity in Emotional Regulation Strategy Patterns between Western and Eastern Countries.
To examine the cultural difference in emotion regulation strategies, we applied CERQ(Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire) to measure the cognitive regulation pattern of the Taiwanese and compared it with research articles that reported the CERQ results in six European countries and China.
Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ). The CERQ includes nine positive/negative adaptive emotion regulation strategies: self-blame, rumination, Blaming others, catastrophizing, acceptance, positive refocusing, refocus on planning, positive reappraisal, putting into perspective ), each strategy subscale contains 4 questions, a total of 36 questions, and is answered in the form of a five-point scale. Subjects describe each question and circle the options that are consistent with their own situation (never, rarely, sometimes , often, always), each item ranges from 1 "never" to 5 "always", one point per question, no reverse questions.
Measured: Each respondent interviews and fills out questionnaires, which takes about 20minutes.
