The main aim of this study was to examine the associations between emotion dysregulation and psychopathology in adolescence. A representative sample of 1,500 adolescent students (50% female) aged 12 to 19 years ( = 15.08, = 1.44) was recruited from schools and colleges located in the province of district Punjab, Pakistan, using a stratified sampling technique. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test associations between five dimensions of emotion regulation difficulties and five forms of psychopathology by gender (male/female). The model provided an adequate fit to the data among girls and boys. In the model tested among boys, seven positive associations between emotion regulation difficulties and psychopathology variables were found. The model tested with girls included one negative and 13 positive associations between the study variables. Findings can be used for designing universal prevention programs to prevent the development of psychopathology.
本研究的主要目的是探讨青少年情绪调节与精神病理学之间的关系。使用分层抽样技术，从巴基斯坦旁遮普省的学校招募了 1500 名年龄在 12 至 19 岁的青少年学生（50%为女性）（ = 15.08， = 1.44）。结构方程模型（SEM）用于检验情绪调节困难的五个维度与五种精神病理学形式之间的性别关联（男性/女性）。该模型在女孩和男孩中均提供了对数据的良好拟合。在对男孩进行的模型测试中，发现情绪调节困难与精神病理学变量之间存在七个正相关。对女孩进行的模型测试包括研究变量之间一个负相关和 13 个正相关。研究结果可用于设计通用预防计划，以预防精神病理学的发生。
