Cognitive emotional regulation, coping style and resilience used among middle aged adults

Cognitive emotional regulation refers to the mental processes by which individuals are able to manage and respond back to the emotions experienced. Coping style denotes the habitual ways individuals react or respond to stress or challenging situations. Resilience is the capacity to bounce back from adversity, stress or difficult experiences. This study aims to explore cognitive emotional regulation, coping style and resilience used among middle aged adults. A quantitative cross-sectional survey design was used to collect data from middle-aged adults. This study employed Convenience Sampling. The data was gathered with the help of Google forms from 214 Middle aged adults, between 40 and 65 years old and analyzed using Microsoft Excel and SPSS 25. The findings suggest that there is no significant corelation between resilience and Cognitive emotional regulation suggesting that an individual's resilience level may not necessarily determine the specific cognitive emotional regulation strategies they employ. Additionally, there was a significant relationship between resilience and coping styles suggests that individuals with higher resilience tend to employ more adaptive and effective coping mechanisms. There was a negative relationship between coping styles and cognitive emotional regulation suggesting that individuals who tend to use more adaptive coping strategies may rely less on certain cognitive emotional regulation strategies. There is no significant difference between Cognitive emotional regulation, resilience and coping styles among males and females. Findings suggest that the levels of resilience, cognitive emotional regulation, and coping strategies do not differ significantly between male and female participants in this study. This implies that the relationships observed between these variables are not influenced by gender differences.
