Abstract
Actualmente los estudiantes universitarios deben desarrollar diversas actividades académicas
que conlleva un gran esfuerzo emocional, frente a ello necesitan regular las emociones con la
finalidad de cuidar su bienestar. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo principal
examinar la relación entre las estrategias de regulación emocional y el bienestar psicológico
(global y sus 6 dimensiones) en estudiantes universitarios. Además, de manera específica
conocer cuál es el nivel de bienestar psicológico y qué estrategias de regulación utilizan
predominantemente los estudiantes (reevaluación cognitiva y/o supresión). Por último,
examinar si existe diferencia por sexo biológico en las variables principales. La muestra estuvo
conformada por 101 estudiantes, entre 16 y 25 años de edad; se utilizaron dos instrumentos: el
Cuestionario de autorregulación emocional (ERQP) y la Escala de bienestar psicológico de
Ryff; ambos instrumentos se encuentran adaptados al contexto peruano. Entre los resultados,
se obtuvo correlaciones significativas entre la regulación emocional y el bienestar psicológico;
también, se obtuvo correlaciones significativas entre los tipos de regulación emocional y las
sub-escalas de bienestar psicológico. Finalmente, se hallaron diferencias por sexo biológico en
la subescala de Autonomía. Los estudiantes desarrollan las mismas capacidades en la
regulación de las emociones y el bienestar que experimentan.
