strategy use following MI. However, when instructed to downregulate amusement using reappraisal, patients reported heightened positive affect reactivity compared to HCs following the MI. Furthermore, patients showed overall but no valence-specific CC deficits. ER deficits in the BD group were partly mediated by reduced CC. Our findings confirm that patients show deviations in their habitual ER strategy use and fail to down-regulate positive emotions when required to do so, indicating both performance and competence deficits. This appears to be partly influenced by impaired CC. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
