DESCRIPTION:Despite the large literature linking emotion regulation with d
 iverse mental health outcomes\, relatively little attention has been given
  to what leads adolescents to engage in emotion regulation in the first pl
 ace. This is a simple yet crucial component of the emotion regulation proc
 ess that has\, to date\, been relatively overlooked. Recent research sugge
 sts that emotion controllability beliefs—the beliefs individuals hold ab
 out the extent to which emotions can be controlled—can influence both th
 e degree to which and the ways in which they regulate emotions. In other w
 ords\, individuals who believe emotions are relatively controllable are mo
 re likely to attempt to regulate their emotions and to persist in these ef
 forts\, with subsequent improvements in their mental health. This talk pre
 sents current theoretical models and empirical data linking these emotion 
 beliefs to emotion regulation and adolescent mental health\, as well as ou
 r collaborative work with secondary school students\, through which we co-
 designed\, implemented\, and evaluated a novel emotion-focused interventio
 n aimed at improving adolescent mental-health outcomes.\n\nThis seminar is
  part of the Child Development and Learning (CDL) Seminar Series.\n\nJoin
