Description

Jocelyn Rutledge and Meaghan Barlow wrote this research paper, published in 2023, about what people believe about controlling emotions. It compares younger and older adults, and people with and without a long-term illness.

The study drew on a sample of forty-seven adults. It sorted beliefs into four kinds: whether people think they can control their own feelings, should control them, and the same two views about other people. Adults living with chronic illness reported weaker belief that they could control their own emotions. Younger adults with illness scored lowest of all on that belief. Among healthy adults, the older group showed a different pattern. The paper links these beliefs to emotional well-being across adult life.
