'I wish I hadn't done that' - Experiences of Guilt and Regret
06 July 2020
Fear, anxiety, sadness, anger, disgust and shame have all received significant attention in trying to understand and develop treatments for a range of mental health problems. Guilt has been considered to some extent although findings have been inconsistent but regret has received little attention. This project is investigating the relationship between guilt and regret and various types of anxiety.
