We advance theory by examining emotion regulation as an interpersonal, interaction-level process and show that interpersonal responsiveness within workplace conversations explains why attempts to help others reappraise setbacks succeed or fail.

Contrary to views that emotional support is draining, we theorize that it can benefit providers. Across two studies, we find that regulating others’ emotions (rather than only listening) stabilizes providers’ physiological stress during stressful team performances (Study 1) and improves well-being over time (Study 2).

Using language analysis of conversations, we show that specific patterns of language use (e.g., target-referential language) shape perceived trust, responsiveness, and feelings of being helped.
