The present study investigate the contribution of counterfactual thinking (upward and downward), regulatory focus (promotion and prevention) and cognitive emotion regulation strategies in decision making styles, As well as investigate the relationship between the independent variables.

The final sample consisted of 1000 students of the first and second year in the faculty of education, university of Benha enrolled in the academic year (2019/2020).

The correlation coefficient revealed that there is a significance positive relationship between promotion focus and upward counterfactual thinking, and between prevention focus and downward counterfactual thinking, the results also refer that there is positive relationship between counterfactual thinking (upward and downward) and cognitive emotion regulation strategies (adaptive and maladaptive) but regulatory focus (promotion and prevention) related only with adaptive strategies.

Multiple regression analysis revealed that independent variables predict of decision making styles.

Regulatory focus (promotion and prevention), adaptive strategies, and downward counterfactual thinking served as significant predictors of rational style.

Upward counterfactual, maladaptive strategies and promotion focus served as significant predictors of intuitive style.

Maladaptive strategies and upward counterfactual significantly predict of avoidant style.

Maladaptive strategies, upward counterfactual, and prevention focus significantly predict of spontaneous style.

Lastly all independent variables served as significant predictors of dependent style except of downward counterfactual.
