TL;DR: Findings indicate that the broad domain of emotion regulation and adaptive coping and the factors of primary control coping and secondary control coping are related to lower levels of symptoms of psychopathology.

TL;DR: Examination of possible points of convergence and divergence between coping and emotion regulation are distinct but closely related constructs with regard to definitions and conceptualisation, research methods and measurement, and interventions to prevent and treat psychopathology.

TL;DR: Examination of relations of measures of cognitive reappraisal and secondary control coping with working memory abilities, positive and negative affect, and symptoms of anxiety and depression in young adults suggests that the assessment of working memory may be more strongly related to secondary control cope in predicting individual differences in distress.
