Abstract

This study compared high- and low-mental-health groups in interpersonal emotion regulation, emotional resilience, and self-efficacy in emotion regulation. A total of 312 participants were classified into high (n=156) and low (n=156) mental health groups using Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for DSM-V (ADIS-V) and General Health Questionnaire-28 (GHQ-28). Participants responded to the ConnorDavidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), Interpersonal Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (IERQ), and Regulatory Emotional SelfEfficacy Scale (RESE). Individuals with high mental health scored significantly higher in emotional resilience (η²=0.152) and regulatory emotional self-efficacy (η²=0.087), while no significant difference was found in interpersonal emotion regulation (η²=0.004). Emotional resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy are key components of mental health and should be further examined as potential targets for clinical interventions.
