This study investigated the role of behavioral activation and ways of stress coping in the relationship between emotional inertia and depression. Emotional inertia refers to the degree to which emotional states are resistant to change from previous time to the next time. Emotion researchers focus on the concept of emotional inertia as an important emotional dynamic system of psychological maladjustment, with active discussions in progress among the clinicians and researchers treating depression. In this study, 341 university students were asked to fill in self-reporting questionnaires on behavioral activation and inhibition, ways of stress coping, and depression. The 28 respondents who score in the top 7% -of the Beck Depression Inventory, comprised the depression group, while 24 subjects scoring in the bottom 7% were assigned to the control group. Emotional inertia was measured through Experience Sampling Method(ESM). The participants were asked to rate their positive (e.g. feeling satisfied / calm / happy / pleasant) and negative (e.g. feeling sad / depressive / anxious /angry) emotional states on a scale ranging from 1 to 100, five times a day for three consecutive days. The data from this Experience Sampling Method was analyzed by Hierarchical Linear Modeling(HLM), with emotional inertia calculated by autocorrelation between emotional states as the first level and behavioral activation and ways of stress coping as the second level. First, there were meaningful differences in both positive and negative emotional inertia between the depression and control groups. Second, the emotional inertia of positive emotions was negatively associated with behavioral activation in the depression group. Third, the emotional inertia of negative emotions was negatively associated with problem-solving strategies in the control group. For the coping style of seeking social support, emotional inertia of negative emotions was negatively associated in control group. On the other hand, the emotional inertia of negative emotions was positively associated with wishful-thinking strategies in depression group. In conclusion, this study has implication to first introduce the concept of emotional inertia which has not been examined in domestic research. Based on the results, the relationships among emotional inertia, behavioral activation and ways of stress coping were discussed, and the directions of follow-up studies were suggested.
