Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? In a lab-based reappraisal paradigm, regulation success, defined as percentage decrease in self-reported negative affect on decrease versus look trials for negative stimuli, improved with age across participants aged 10-23, following both linear and quadratic trends. → Ahmed Saz P. 2015

q3 · i? · review · r3
A lab-based study of 44 participants aged 10-23 viewing negative and neutral IAPS pictures under look or decrease (reappraisal) instructions. The review reports regulation success improved with age with both linear and quadratic trends.
"Regulation success was defined as percentage decrease in self-reported negative affect on ‘decrease’ trials relative to ‘look’ trials for negative stimuli, and was found to improve with age, following both linear and quadratic trends."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Emotion regulation and cognitive control discrepancy on emotional go/no-go decreases with age — related
- Reappraisal ability shows linear and quadratic relationships with age, while self-reported emotional reactivity shows no age differences — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
- Left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex activation shows linear age-related increases during reappraisal — related
- Social-cognitive regions show quadratic activation patterns with age, with adolescents showing lower reactivity-related but higher reappraisal-related activation — related
- Stronger executive function is concurrently associated with greater cognitive reappraisal and less expressive suppression in adolescents — related
