Difficulties in emotion regulation (ER) are considered a core feature of borderline personality disorder (BPD). It remains unclear, however, why individuals with BPD employ less effective cognitive ER strategies at the decrement of long-term emotional stability. Three studies were carried out to address the selection and implementation of cognitive ER strategies in females with BPD (n=30), a mixed group of individuals with anxiety and depressive disorders (MAD; n=30), and non-psychiatric controls (HC; n=32). Results of Chapter 2 indicated that BPD reported more frequent use of maladaptive cognitive ER strategies (suppression, rumination, avoidance) and less frequent use of adaptive strategies (acceptance, cognitive reappraisal, problem-solving) relative to HC. Compared to MAD, BPD endorsed using acceptance less often, even after statistically accounting for group differences in clinical severity and depression symptoms, and they reported engaging in harmful behaviours (e.g., self-injury) more often to regulate emotions. In Chapter 3, participants rated the extent to which they employed uninstructed cognitive ER strategies following a negative mood induction procedure. Similar to Chapter 2, BPD more frequently endorsed using maladaptive strategies compared to HC and reported higher subjective difficulty managing their mood states. Despite endorsing having used a higher number of different cognitive ER strategies than HC, BPD still reported a higher negative mood following the induction procedure. Chapter 4 discusses presenting participants with negative images varying in emotional intensity and asking them to describe the specific tactics they used while cognitively reappraising the contents of the images. BPD used fewer words to describe and reappraise the images and perceived themselves as less effective at generating reappraisals compared to HC. Contrary to expectations, BPD did not report using a different set of tactics in their reappraisals of high or low intensity images compared to HC and MAD. Collectively, the results of these studies advance understanding of the factors that may influence the selection and implementation of cognitive ER strategies in BPD and other mental disorders characterized by difficulties in ER. The results broaden conventional theories of emotion dysregulation in BPD and place the findings in the context of a modern affective science model of ER.
