The purpose of this study was to investigate the explanatory roles of anxiety, sadness, disgust, anger, guilt, joy, calm in different types of psychopathological symptoms. Thus frequency of the emotions and self-elaboration about these feelings were studied. The study included 232 university students and we evaluated how frequently they felt these emotions and the level of anxiety during this process. According to regression analysis, different psychopathological symptoms have been predicted by different emotions. Feeling more anxious about negative and positive emotions and giving more importance to dealing with these emotions are closely related with higher level of psychopathological symptoms. These results would contribute to understanding of emotions roles in different symptoms. [Psikiyatride Guncel Yaklasimlar - Current Approaches in Psychiatry 2017; 9(1.000): 45-62]
