A new understanding of the cognitive reappraisal technique: an extension based on the schema theory
Y. Wang and B. Yin
Cognitive reappraisal often fails to generalize beyond clinic settings. This research was conducted by Ya-Xin Wang and Bin Yin. They propose reframing reappraisal through schema and dual-system theories: treating meaning reconstruction as extinction-like new learning that must be enriched via environmental interaction, feedback, and bottom-up behavioral training to integrate new schemata into long-term memory. The approach aims to help clients achieve stable emotions and transfer regulation across real-world contexts.
