1 Introduction People frequently encounter events that trigger negative emotions in daily social life (Gross et al. 2006; Berking and Wupperman 2012; Berkman and Lieberman 2009; Gross and Muñoz 1995). Negative emotions can severely affect our daily life and work, as well as harm our physical and mental health (Gross 1998). Therefore, regulating emotions is crucial for adapting to various situations. Emotion regulation refers to the ability to experience, influence, and express emotions (Gross 1998).
