Many people may face anxiety during the process of career exploration, and it is necessary to regulate such anxiety. However, the relationship between career anxiety and adaptive and maladaptive emotional regulation strategies in career exploration remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between career choice anxiety and emotional regulation strategies in career exploration. We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey of 397 university students. Correlation analysis showed that career choice anxiety was negatively correlated with self- and environmental exploration. In emotional regulation strategies, a positive correlation was shown not only with cognitive reappraisal but also refocusing on planning. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis show the interaction between career choice anxiety and maladaptive emotion regulation strategies, especially rumination and other blame strategies, on career exploration. The simple slope test shows that when anxiety was high, the liner of rumination and other blame strategies were significant. These results suggest that it is possible that maladapted emotion regulation strategies are also effective in career exploration. In future studies, it will be necessary to comprehensively investigate the contribution of emotion regulation strategies, including maladapted strategies on career exploration, by conducting longitudinal and experimental research.
