O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar as estratégias de regulação emocional utilizadas por estudantes do ensino superior e compreender de que forma estas se relacionam com o bem-estar psicológico. Participaram 393 estudantes, com idades entre os 18 e os 53 anos (M = 22.24; DP = 5.42), provenientes de diversas instituições universitárias portuguesas. Os dados foram recolhidos através do Questionário de Regulação Emocional Comportamental (BERQ), do Questionário de Regulação Emocional Cognitiva (CERQ) e da Escala de Medida de Manifestação de Bem-Estar Psicológico (EMMBP). Os resultados revelaram que os estudantes recorrem sobretudo a estratégias adaptativas, como Abordar Ativamente, Procurar Distração, Reavaliação Positiva e Replaneamento, apresentando níveis satisfatórios de bem-estar, com destaque para Sociabilidade, Equilíbrio e Envolvimento Social. As estratégias adaptativas associaram-se positivamente ao bem-estar, enquanto Autocrítica, Ignorar e Catastrofização mostraram relações negativas. A regressão linear múltipla indicou que estas estratégias explicam 36,1% da variância do bem-estar psicológico. Verificaram-se ainda diferenças significativas em função do ciclo de estudos, género e área científica. Conclui-se que a regulação emocional é um fator determinante para o bem-estar dos estudantes, reforçando a importância de promover competências adaptativas que favoreçam a resiliência e o funcionamento psicológico positivo.
This study aimed to analyze the emotional regulation strategies used by higher education students and to understand how these relate to psychological well-being. The sample included 393 students aged between 18 and 53 years (M = 22.24; SD = 5.42) from several Portuguese universities. Data were collected using the Behavioral Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (BERQ), the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ), and the Psychological Well-Being Manifestation Scale (EMMBP). Results showed that students mainly used adaptive strategies such as Active Coping, Distraction Seeking, Positive Reappraisal, and Replanning, reporting satisfactory levels of well-being, especially in Sociability, Balance, and Social Involvement. Adaptive strategies were positively associated with well-being, while Self-Blame, Ignoring, and Catastrophizing showed negative relationships. Multiple linear regression indicated that these strategies explained 36.1% of the variance in psychological well-being. Significant differences were also found according to study cycle, gender, and scientific area. Overall, emotional regulation emerged as a key factor for students’ psychological well-being, highlighting the importance of promoting adaptive strategies that enhance resilience, positive functioning, and emotional adjustment within the academic context.
