Reinterpretation

Reinterpretation is giving a situation a new, more useful or more accurate meaning without denying the facts.

Definicja

Reinterpretation is one of the emotion regulation strategies. It involves changing the way you understand the event, your own reaction or the consequences of the situation. It's not about artificially positive thinking, but about checking whether the original interpretation is not too narrow, catastrophic or based on incomplete data.
