dc.description.abstractThe current study aimed to explore the phenomenon of emotion regulation and its relation with the mental health problems in adolescents. For this purpose cross sectional research design was used. This research was carried out in a series.The total number of participants was 364 (53% boys and 43% girls) with an age range 10-19 years. An indigenous scale was developed for the assessment of emotion regulation, namely ERQA along with demographic Performa, and for mental health problems SCPS was administered. Factor analysis revealed three factors, namely Internalizing, Active Resolution and Distraction. Hierarchial Regression Analysis was run which showed that the nternalizing factor of ERQA was the positive predictor of the mental health problems and Active Resolution was found to be a negative predictor of mental health problems. Distraction was not found to be the predictor of mental health problems. Gender, sector and attachment styles were also found to be strong predictors of mental health problems. Research results were discussed in terms of clinical and research implication, cultural differences and its impact on the mental health problems of the adolescents.en_US
