Abstract
En los últimos años, el estudio sobre la eficacia de las estrategias de regulación emocional ha evidenciado que no existe una estrategia eminentemente más adaptativa deforma absoluta (Aldao, 2013; Tamir, 2021; Webb et al., 2012). Por el contrario, parece ser que su eficacia estaría ligada a diversos factores individuales (e.g., Hervás y Vázquez,2011) y contextuales (Aldao y Tull, 2015) que podrían influir en el balance de costes beneficios propio de cada estrategia, haciendo que esta resulte más o menos adaptativas en distintas situaciones (Tamir, 2021).Por tanto, dado que el contexto tiene un papel en la regulación emocional (Tamir,2021), tener una regulación flexible, es decir, ser capaz de desplegar una estrategia u otra en función de la situación y las necesidades, parecería ser la opción más adaptativa (Kobylińska y Kusev, 2019). Para ello, es necesario conocer qué factores situacionales o contextuales afectan a este proceso y qué estrategias funcionan mejor en cada caso. Un contexto altamente frecuente en la vida diaria, pero poco estudiado fuera del ámbito organizacional, es el de sobrecarga emocional. Este fenómeno se presenta ante situaciones con múltiples eventos negativos consecutivos, sin tiempo para recuperarse. En este tipo de casos podría suceder que estrategias que resultan eficaces a corto plazo, puedan suponer un mayor esfuerzo a medio y largo plazo, y, por tanto, ser contraproducentes cuando la situación negativa no se resuelve de forma inmediata (Troyet al., 2017)...
In recent years, research about emotion regulation strategies has shown that there is no evidence of a better or eminently more adaptive strategy over others (Aldao, 2013;Tamir, 2021; Webb et al., 2012). On the contrary, it seems that its effectiveness would be linked to several individual (e.g., Hervás & Vázquez, 2011) and contextual (Aldao &Tull, 2015) factors that could affect the cost-benefit balance of each strategy, making it more or less adaptive in different situations (Tamir, 2021).Therefore, given that the context plays a key role in emotion regulation (Tamir,2021), having a flexible emotion regulation, that is, being able to deploy one strategy or another depending on the situation and needs, would seem to be the most adaptative option (Kobylińska & Kusev, 2019). However, to be able to do this, it is necessary to know what situational or contextual factors affect this process and what strategies would work best in each case. A highly frequent context in daily life, that has been barely studied out of the organizational field, is emotional overload. This phenomenon occurs in situations where people face multiple and consecutive negative events, without time to recover. In this context, it could happen that strategies that are effective in the short-term, may involve a greater effort in the medium and long-term, and, therefore, be counterproductive when the negative situation does not end immediately (Troy et al., 2017)...
