I recently encountered two articles that I think are helpful. First, Hubbard, Moore, Zajac, Bookhout & Dozier (2023) published “Emotion Transmission in Peer Dyads in Middle Childhood” in Child Development. Here’s the abstract with some information in bold:

Howard & Cheavens (2022) published “Interpersonal Emotion Regulation in the Context of Social Networks: A focus on borderline personality disorder” in Personality Disorders: Theory, Research, and Treatment. Here’s the abstract:

Swerdlow, Sandel & Johnson (2022) published “Shame on Me for Needing You: A multistudy examination of links between receiving interpersonal emotion regulation and experiencing shame” in Emotion. I was intrigued by the title and the notion of asking people about their experiences with interpersonal emotional regulation. Here’s the abstract:

Kunzmann, Katzorreck, Wieck, Schilling, Lücke & Gerstorf (2022) published “Emotion Regulation in Old and Very Old Age” in Emotion. I like this study because it uses multiple measures and contrasts the young old (averaging 66 years) and the very old (averaging 86 years). As more seniors live well into their 80s and 90s, it makes sense to study them.
