Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study investigated emotional change following emotional self-disclosure, and the effects of cognitive reframing and socio-affective regulation modes in a Taiwanese sample. Data from 120 participants were collected from a university in northern Taiwan. Participants recalled a negative memory and disclosed the memory to a confederate via internet. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions: 1) cognitive reframing, 2) socio-affective, 3) combined group, and 4) control group. Two sets of mixed factorial ANOVA were implemented to examine emotional change in response to cognitive reframing and socio-affective regulation modes. Results indicated that only cognitive reframing regulation mode facilitated emotional change over and beyond the effect of emotional self-disclosure. Relevant research findings and clinical implications were discussed.
