N2 - Background Somatic symptoms and related disorders (SSD) are prevalent phenomena in the healthcare system. Disturbances in emotion regulation (ER) are commonly observed in patients suffering from SSD. Objectives This review aimed to examine ER processes that characterize SSD by a systematic analysis of the available empirical studies. Data sources PsycINFO and PubMed databases for the articles published between January 1985 and June 2018. Search terms "emotion/al regulation" or "affect regulation" and various forms of SSD. Study eligibility criteria Empirical studies that a) assigned adolescent or adult patients suffering from SSD based on a clinical diagnosis, and b) examined the relationship between ER and SSD, were included. Study synthesis methods A tabular summary of the articles was generated according to study characteristics, study quality, variables, and findings. The findings were organized based on ER variables used in the articles and diagnoses of SSD, which were then re-organized under the main constituents of ER (attention, body, and knowledge).
