Adolescents struggling with both internalizing and externalizing symptoms might find it challenging to regulate their emotions, affecting their social skills and behavior problems.
The combination of internalizing behaviors like anxiety, and externalizing behaviors such as aggression, creates a complex challenge for teens in managing emotional responses.
Teens with higher levels of symptoms typically demonstrate poorer social skills and a greater tendency towards behavioral problems, leading to an increased likelihood of risk-taking.
Understanding the role of emotion regulation is crucial for identifying adolescents at risk; those experiencing both internalizing and externalizing issues often struggle more significantly with emotional management.
