Recent studies have argued that emotional impulsiveness and deficient emotional self-regulation are central components in attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder. The aim of this study was to determine the role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies, utilization of emotion, and appraisal of emotion in predicting adults' attention-deficit/ hyperactivity symptoms. So, Two hundred and ninety-three undergraduate and MA students (141 boys and 152 girls) were selected by convenience sampling and answered the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ), Barkley Adult ADHD Rating Scale-IV (BAARS-IV), and Emotional Intelligence Scale-41 (FEIS-41). The result of hierarchical regression analysis showed after removing the effect of utilization of emotion and appraisal of emotion, five cognitive strategies of emotion regulation including self-blame, catastrophizing, other-blame, refocus on planning and positive reappraisal significantly have a role in predicting adult ADHD symptoms. The results suggest that cognitive emotion regulation strategies must be included in the conceptualization and diagnosis of Adult ADHD.
