Abstract: In a period full of "storm and stress", Chinese adolescents' emotion regulation develops rapidly. Cultural values and social norm play important role in the development process of emotion regulation. Most of the prior studies focus on adolescent development under a typical Western culture. However, there are significant differences in the culture values and regulation goal of emotion regulation between Western and Asian cultures. The present review aimed to introduce the studies of emotion regulation development in Chinese adolescents' population and discuss the dominant role of down-regulation during development and the anti-hedonic regulation of positive emotions in adolescence.

Key words: adolescents, emotion regulation development, down-regulation, anti-hedonic emotion regulation
