Emotion Regulation: Emotion regulation refers to the processes by which individuals influence their own emotional experiences, either by amplifying or dampening them. It involves strategies such as reappraisal (changing how one thinks about a situation) or suppression (attempting to hide or mask one's emotions).
Mood Disorders: Mood disorders are mental health conditions characterized by significant disturbances in emotional experiences, often leading to long-lasting periods of depressed mood (such as major depressive disorder) or elevated mood (such as bipolar disorder).
Affect Infusion Model: The affect infusion model suggests that emotional experiences can influence cognition, decision-making, and judgment. It proposes that when individuals' emotional states become infused with cognitive tasks, it can bias their thoughts and behavior in specific ways.
