Kendini gizleme eğilimi hem bireysel hem de ilişkisel çeşitli sorunlar için bir yatkınlık faktörü olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bununla birlikte bu örüntünün gelişiminde rol oynayabilecek olası faktörlere dair bilgi ihtiyacı devam etmektedir. Bu bağlamda, mevcut çalışmada temel psikolojik ihtiyaçlar ile kendini gizleme eğilimi arasında duygu düzenleme güçlüğünün aracı rolü incelenmiştir. Araştırmaya, kolay ulaşılabilir örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak, bir yükseköğretim kurumuna devam etmekte olan ve yaşları 18 ile 30 arasında değişen (Ort. = 21.55, SS = 2.00) toplam 480 gönüllü yetişkin dâhil edilmiştir. Araştırmanın verisi Duygu Düzenleme Güçlükleri Ölçeği – Kısa Formu, Kendini Gizleme Ölçeği ve Temel Psikolojik İhtiyaçlar Ölçeği – Revize Formu kullanılarak çevrimiçi uygulama ile elde edilmiştir. Korelasyon analizi sonuçlarına göre temel ihtiyaç doyumundaki azalma, duygu düzenleme güçlüğü ve kendini gizleme eğilimindeki artışla pozitif yönde ilişkilidir. Regresyon analizinde de psikolojik ihtiyaçlar ile kendini gizleme eğilimi arasında duygu düzenleme güçlüğünün tam aracı rolü olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu sonuca göre, ihtiyaç doyumundaki azalma duygu düzenleme güçlüğünü arttırması yoluyla kendini gizleme eğilimindeki artışı açıklamaktadır. Söz konusu bulgular, bireyin kendisi ile ilgili olumsuz olarak değerlendirdiği bilgileri başkalarından saklama eğiliminin gelişimine Kendini Belirleme Kuramı çerçevesinde bir açıklama getirmektedir. Bu eğilimin sürekliliğinde rol oynayan duygu düzenleme güçlüğü, ilişkili psikolojik ve ilişkisel sorunların kavramsallaştırılmasına katkı sunmakta; duygu düzenleme becerilerinin önleme ve tedavi etme amaçlı uygulamalarda göz önünde bulundurulmasının önemine işaret etmektedir.
