The Emotion Regulation Skills Questionnaire (ERSQ) comprehensively assesses nine aspects of emotion regulation skills: awareness, clarity, sensation, understanding, compassionate self-support, modification, acceptance, tolerance, and readiness to confront. However, it is unknown about the levels of emotion regulation skills in various mental disorders, and its cross-cultural validity. We developed a Japanese version of the ERSQ, then examined its validity and reliability in clinical and non-clinical populations.
In an Internet-based survey, 2684 participants (406 with MDD, 198 with PD, 116 with SAD, 66 with OCD, 636 with comorbid MDD and ≥1 anxiety disorder, and 99 with comorbid anxiety disorders; 1163 non-clinical sample) answered the ERSQ, diagnostic status, and measures of mindfulness, emotion regulation, behavioral activation, psychological distress, and life satisfaction.
Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) replicated the theoretical nine-factor structure of the original ERSQ. Higher-order factor analysis model assuming two second-order factors and nine first-order factors also showed adequate fit to the data, suggesting the factorial validity of the scale. Analyses of multi-group CFA indicated the equivalence of factor loadings across clinical and non-clinical subsamples. The levels of internal consistency and time stability were sufficient. Convergent validity of the scale was also confirmed for most of external criteria. Character on the emotion regulation skills for each diagnostic group was depicted.
Internet survey of samples with limited disorders, with self-reported diagnoses, may limit generalizability.
The Japanese version of the ERSQ showed adequate reliability and validity.
情绪调节技能问卷（ERSQ）全面评估情绪调节技能的九个方面：意识、清晰度、感觉、理解、富有同情心的自我支持、修正、接受、容忍和面对的准备程度。然而，各种精神障碍中情绪调节技能的水平及其跨文化效度尚不清楚。我们开发了ERSQ的日语版本，然后在临床和非临床人群中检验了其效度和信度。
在一项基于互联网的调查中，2684名参与者（406名患有重度抑郁症，198名患有惊恐障碍，116名患有社交焦虑障碍，66名患有强迫症，636名患有重度抑郁症合并≥1种焦虑症，99名患有合并焦虑症；1163名非临床样本）回答了ERSQ、诊断状态以及正念、情绪调节、行为激活、心理困扰和生活满意度的测量指标。
验证性因素分析（CFA）复制了原始ERSQ的理论九因素结构。假设两个二阶因素和九个一阶因素的高阶因素分析模型也显示出对数据的充分拟合，表明该量表的因素效度。多组CFA分析表明临床和非临床子样本之间因素负荷的等效性。内部一致性和时间稳定性水平足够。该量表的收敛效度也在大多数外部标准中得到了证实。描绘了每个诊断组在情绪调节技能方面的特征。
对患有有限障碍且自我报告诊断的样本进行互联网调查可能会限制普遍性。
ERSQ的日语版本显示出足够的信度和效度。
