Abstract

This study examined two aspects of self-regulation- emotional and behavioral regulations, and how they were related to behavior problems among 262 adolescent boys. Specifically, we hypothesized that behavioral regulation would mediate the relation between emotional regulation strategies of reappraisal and suppression, and behavior problems. Adolescent self-reports of emotional and behavioral regulations and behavior problems were used. Additionally, teachers reported behavior problems of adolescents. Results revealed that reappraisal emotional regulation strategy was positively associated with behavioral regulation, and negatively associated with behavior problems. The behavioral regulation partially mediated the link between reappraisal emotional regulation strategy and behavior problems of adolescent boys. However, suppression emotional regulation strategy was not related to behavrioal regulation but positively associated with behavior problems. There was no mediational effect of behavioral regulation on the relation between suppression emotional regulation strategy and behavior problems. In conclusion, reappraisal emotional regulation strategy appeared to have a more positive association with adolescent boys' behavioral regulation. Adolescent boys who exercised better behavioral regulation in turn, showed lower levels of behavior problems. However, suppression emotional regulation strategy was positively associated with higher levels of behavior problems when it was not related to adolescent boys behavioral regulation.
