It is common for university students to find themselves in stressful situations related to the need to comprehend discourse and make decisions in relation to their learning. Therefore, emotional regulation is key. These concepts have been widely studied in recent years, but their interplay has not been thoroughly examined. Considering this gap, this paper aims to review the literature and analyze the role of stress and emotional regulation strategies in the impact of cognitive processing involved in decision-making and discourse coherence construction.
To this end, we will first present and describe studies on how stress and emotional regulation affect cognitive processing. Then, we will focus on decision-making processes. Finally, we will analyze the role of emotions, emotional regulation, and stress in the construction of discourse coherence. Finally, we will present conclusions and pending questions for future research.
