Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyse emotional regulation and psychological resilience in adolescents, exploring various variables and their interrelationships. A descriptive and relational survey model was used in the study, which included a sample of 967 adolescents in Turkey. Data were collected using a “Personal Information Form,” the “Emotion Regulation Scale for Adolescents” and the “Adolescents Psychological Resilience Scale.” The results showed that adolescents’ psychological resilience differed according to gender and maternal education level, while emotional regulation strategies differed according to gender, socioeconomic level and parental education level. There was a relationship between adolescents’ psychological resilience and their internal functional emotional regulation strategies. Furthermore, factors such as peer support, school support, adjustment and empathy were found to be effective in improving adolescents’ emotional regulation strategies.
