MARTINEZ-INIGO, David y CREGO, Antonio. Evaluation of a Training Program aiming to Improve Interpersonal Emotion Regulation Strategies and Occupational Wellbeing in a Uruguayan Prison. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.3, pp.184-198. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-3.eimc.
Previous research show a positive relationship between using IARS to improve other people’s affect and the level of wellbeing of the agent implementing them, whereas using IARS to worsen other’s affect can worsen the agent’s wellbeing. These results can be explained as the balance between the self-control resources drained and recovered by each IARS. We evaluate the efficacy of a training program to increase prison officers’ wellbeing and focused on IARS. Results, based on a quasi-experimental design, revealed a higher level of wellbeing and a lower increased on worsening strategies among the training participants (N=21), compared with a control group (N=18). Results were not significant for improving strategies. Changes in the use of IARS negatively predicted changes in wellbeing.
