Psychometric properties of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) in a non-clinical population in Sweden

摘要

Brief Version of the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-16) [ ] contains 16 items, which are rated on a 5-point Likert scale and range from 1 (“Almost never”) to 5 (“Almost always”). It measures difficulties in different aspects of emotion regulation, such as engaging in goal-directed behaviour (e.g., “When I’m upset, I have difficulty focusing on other things”), accessing various emotion regulation strategies (e.g., “When I’m upset, I believe that I’ll end up feeling very depressed”), and impulse control (e.g., “When I’m upset, I feel out of control“). Possible scores range from 16 to 80, higher scores indicating higher emotion dysregulation. A Swedish version of DERS-16 was employed and had high internal consistency (α = .92).
