Die Rolle der Emotionsdysregulation für die Genese von Angststörungen im Kindes- und Jugendalter

Published Online:February 28, 2015https://doi.org/10.1024/1661-4747/a000113

Abstract

Zusammenfassung: Die Rolle der Emotionsregulation als ein bedeutsamer Einflussfaktor für psychische Störungen wird zunehmend diskutiert. Angststörungen zählen im Kindes- und Jugendalter zu den häufigsten psychischen Störungen, wobei der Einfluss der Emotionsregulation bislang nicht spezifiziert ist. Basierend auf den überwiegend querschnittlichen und nicht auf bestimmte Angststörungen bezogenen Befunden zum Zusammenhang von Emotionsdysregulation und Angststörungen im Kindes- und Jugendalter, wird ein Modell entwickelt, das entscheidende Dimensionen der Emotionsdysregulation wie etwa die Aufmerksamkeitslenkung oder kognitive Strategien spezifiziert und einen konkreten Wirkmechanismus über die Peer-Akzeptanz annimmt. Dieses Modell der Angststörungen im Kindes- und Jugendalter kann die Hypothesengenerierung zukünftiger Forschung gezielt leiten.


The Role of Emotion Regulation for the Genesis of Anxiety Disorders in Childhood and Adolescence

Abstract.A growing body of literature discusses the role of emotion regulation as a significant predictor for mental disorders. In early childhood and adolescence anxiety disorders are the most common mental disorders, in which the influence of emotion regulation is still not specified. Based on the generally cross-sectional studies that are not focused on the type of anxiety disorder and analyze the relation between emotion dysregulation and anxiety disorders in childhood and adolescence, we propose a model that identifies the critical dimensions of emotion dysregulation, like attention shifting or cognitive strategies, and presents peer acceptance as a specific mechanism through which emotion dysregulation exerts its influence. This model of emotion dysregulation in anxiety disorders in childhood and adolescence can purposefully guide hypothesis for future research.
