Emotion and Emotion Regulation across Adulthood
In this line of research I am interested in how emotions and emotion regulation develop up until older adulthood
In particular I am interested in questions such as
How do people across adulthood regulate their emotions in daily life?
How can people across adulthood utilize social resources to maintain emotional well-being?
How does the impact of context (e.g., daily situations, social relationships) on emotional processes change as we get older?
