Abstract
Emotion regulation represents a crucial ability for social interaction, guiding behavior and modulatin g emotional expression. Current essay reviews the available lite rature on emotion regulation, points out the differ ent coping strategies and investigates the underlying neural network. Studies on cognitive reappraisal of emotion have noted a pa ttern of brain response characterized by the activation of the prefrontal c ortex associated with the reduction of amygdala acti vity. A modulatory mechanism between these structures has been suggested. Recent work showed that psychotherapeutic approaches may modify the dysfunctional neural circuitry associated with p sychiatric disorders. Results show that investigating the neurobiology of emotion regulation offers a potential repercussion on the understanding of the basis of psychiatric di sorders, orienting the development of applied studies and improving their clinical relevance.
