Abstract

Second Language learner emotions has been a hot research topic recently. In the realm of emotion regulation, both theoretical frameworks and empirical studies have yielded substantial findings. This study explores emotion regulation among English majors within the contexts of further education and employment. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven English majors, and their responses were transcribed and analyzed using Nvivo. The findings indicate that: (1) emotion regulation strategies differ between English majors in further education versus employment contexts; (2) their choice of emotion regulation strategies is influenced by internal factors such as beliefs and personality, as well as external factors like interpersonal relationships and environmental conditions. These results contribute to the understanding of emotion regulation in the contexts of further education and employment, offering practical guidance for English majors in managing their emotions.
