The objective was to identify the levels of adaptation of emotion regulation strategies and the probabilities of association between emotional self-regulation for sadness, joy and anger, and affective states of graduate students. For this, 58 graduate, master and doctoral students from two programs at a Federal University participated, who filled out a characterization questionnaire and the Life Satisfaction, Positive Affect and Assessment of Emotional Regulation Strategies scales. of Adults. Data were analyzed quantitatively, using descriptive statistics with a measure of central tendency, with the help of SPSS 20 software. The results show that, despite the difference between the number of participants per program, students have used satisfactory strategies, since there was no minimum score on any of the subscales – sadness, anger and fear. When associated with the study categories, it was found that Life Satisfaction has a high positive correlation with Joy and positive Affect. In addition, it is clear that students who had a low feeling of satisfaction with life, do not show animation and engagement in everyday activities. The absence of adaptive strategies for negative emotions tends to directly affect the subjects' positive affect and feelings of well-being. It is suggested the development of new studies, with an enlarged sample and that accompany the formative process of the students, in order to understand the influences of the strategies used in the academic performance.
