Cognitive reappraisal is a deliberate emotion-regulation technique in which a person consciously reinterprets the meaning of a situation or stimulus to alter its emotional impact. It operates by changing the cognitive frame through which an event is evaluated — transforming threat into challenge, loss into growth, or ambiguity into opportunity. The mechanism persists through learned cognitive strategies taught in cognitive-behavioral therapy and reinforced by repeated practice. [formal: cognitiva revalorisatio | substrate: mind | horizon: a moment | explicit: yes | epoch: 1.00]
