SCRIPTS OF A COMPLEX AFFECTIVE FUNCTIONS REGULATION
Journal Title: Psychological Thought - Year 2024, Vol 17, Issue 1
Abstract
The current study presents preliminary results from an extensive study called "Potential to be well", conducted with different quotas taking in account gender, people with or without psychiatric diagnosis and cohorts of different ages. The aim of the research is to test some scales for self-assessment developed by positive psychology, implementing the multi-method approach, but also to analyze the data for existing patterns’ differences in complex affective functions and dysfunctions. The “resilience”, “subjective life-satisfaction”, “emotional expressiveness”, “expressive ambivalence”, “suppression or reappraisal in emotion regulation” inventories are reliable and valid measures, which reflect complex subjective functions from the emotional sphere. It is noted that these indices follow a bi-directional logic – some patterns express negative trends in experiences, and others reflect a positive psychological transformation of primary functions helping to overcome emotional difficulties and turning adversity into advantage. It was also found that three scripts of complex mediatory sequential models are demonstrated, which combined, predict how two intuitive routes sustain and effect deterioration or improvement in the context of an individual case interpretation.
