Abstract

This article addressed the predictor role of mindfulness and cognitive emotion regulation strategies on wellbeing. I expected that individuals who score higher on mindfulness use, more adaptive emotion regulation strategies, and less non-adaptive emotion regulation strategies would score higher on wellbeing. The present article used a correlational design to investigate the associations between cognitive emotion regulation strategies, wellbeing, and mindfulness in young adult participants. One hundred seventy-five university students were recruited for this study. Correlation analysis showed that mindfulness and wellbeing were significantly and positively correlated. Multiple regression analysis showed that emotion regulation strategies of Self-blame and Planning were significant predictors of wellbeing. University students' wellbeing might be enhanced when they use planning strategies and dampened when they use self-blame to cope with stressful events.

Abstract

This study examined high school Turkish adolescents’ susceptibility to peer pressure across four domains (family, peer, school, and misconduct) as a function of religiosity (extrinsic/intrinsic), self-esteem, and self-perceived level of autonomy. Further analysis examined religiosity in the context of educational institutions (religious/non-religious) and its relationship with peer pressure susceptibility. A non-random convenience sampling method generated a sample of 259 students enrolled in the 9(n=168) and 11(n=89) grades at three high schools in Istanbul, Turkey, with an average age of 15.78 years (SD=1.11). A series of multiple hierarchical regression analyses and correlational analyses indicated several sex differences across domains and highlighted the importance of religiosity to understanding adolescent peer pressure susceptibility. Self-esteem was the most consistent predictor of susceptibility to peer pressure in the four domains.
