Validaci贸n de la Estimaci贸n Cognoscitiva de los Procesos de Regulaci贸n Emocional para la Emoci贸n de Amor
Love is an emotion able to produce pleasure, plenty and happiness as well as displeasures taking as examples: fear, uncertainty when there is a possibility to loss a love object (e.g. Hatfield & Waster, 1978; Retana, 2004). Based on this, the importance of emotional regulation (ER) is evident in the interpersonal harmony and the successful adjustment to the social environment (Valiente & Eisenberg, 2006). ER is seen as five cognitive mechanisms (situation selection, situation modification, attentional deployment, cognitive change and response modulation) which define the ways to respond particularly to each emotion (Gross & Thompson, 2007). Taking into account this, we evaluated those processes in love emotion in 201 Mexican adults. Findings show on one hand, the tendencies of particular ways to respond to love in the interpersonal context and on the other hand, the applicability, validity and reliability of the measure in this emotion

individuo de plenitud y alegr铆a; como displacenteras ya que pueden provocarle miedo e
incertidumbre ante la sola posibilidad de la p茅rdida del objeto amoroso (p. e. Hatfield y
Waster, 1978; Retana, 2004). Con base en ello, se plantea la importancia de la
regulaci贸n emocional (RE) en la armon铆a interpersonal y en el aseguramiento de una
adaptaci贸n exitosa (Valiente y Eisenberg, 2006). La RE es vista como una serie de 5
mecanismos cognoscitivos (selecci贸n de la situaci贸n, la modificaci贸n, el
desplazamiento de atenci贸n, el cambio cognoscitivo y la modulaci贸n de la respuesta)
que van definiendo las formas de respuesta particulares ante cada una de las emociones
(Gross y Thompson, 2007). Partiendo de estas nociones, se evaluaron dichos procesos
ante la experiencia del amor en 201 adultos mexicanos. Los resultados muestran por un
lado, las tendencias de respuesta particulares y propias del amor en el contexto
interpersonal y por otro, la aplicabilidad, validez y confiabilidad de la medida en este
contexto
