AB - This study examines the possibility of theoretical integration of different measures of emotional regulation. In particular, we analyse the empirical relationship existing between such measures with the aim of gaining a better understanding of the mechanisms on which emotional management operates. The study was carried out with 161 undergraduates that were evaluated through three measures of emotional regulation: Perceived Emotional Intelligence (TMMS); Emotional Suppression and emotional reappraisal strategies (ERQ); Emotional coping (EAC) and in criterion variables such as Self- Esteem and Life Satisfaction (SWLS). Likewise, the present study investigates the incremental, convergent and discriminant validity of emotional regulation measures to account for the variance of the several criterion variables: life satisfaction and self-esteem. The results obtained pointed to the expected direction, showing that the dimensions of the various tendencies studied seem to be assessing in practise the same type of emotional management strategies.
