  abstract     = {{In recent years, research addressing emotion regulation has increased tremendously and it has been recognized that the concept of emotion regulation is of significant value for research in mental health. Emotion regulation refers to the processes by which individuals influence which emotions they have, when they have them, and how they experience and express these emotions. Deficits in these processes have been identified as a possible etiologic as well as a maintaining factor in several mental disorders, including depression. Furthermore it is considered to be a promising target in treatment for adolescent’ depression. More specifically theories of child and adult psychopathology state that if emotions are not regulated properly, thus when there are deficits in the ability to adaptively cope with strong emotions, various kinds of psychopathology can arise. It has been found that adolescence is characterized by the experience of more negative and pronounced emotions. Moreover especially the incidence of depression seems to increase during this period of life. Hence, since adolescence is considered to be a period of risk and a crucial period for the further development of emotion regulation strategies, we will focus more specifically on this period of life. Furthermore a solid understanding of emotion regulation during this period is needed to take early precautions to prevent the development of full-blown depressive disorders. Besides, profound insights in these processes could potentially clarify individual differences in depression. Therefore, in the following, we will provide an integrative review of the latest developments in conceptualization, empirical findings and theoretical understanding of emotion regulation in order to prevent a clearer view on this topic and address the gaps in research concerning this topic. More specifically we will explore the role of child factors such as temperament, environmental factors such as family processes, as well as possible underlying mechanisms, such as attachment.}},
