Little is known about the role of emotion regulation in driving. This study analyzed the psychometric properties of one of the most commonly-used tests for the evaluation of emotion regulation in a drivers' sample.
A total of 318 male drivers (M age = 41.6 years, SD = 11.1, age range 20-69 years, half with road traffic offences and half, matched controls), participated in the study by filling out the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ). Data analysis was carried out using the Rasch Rating Scale Model (RSM).
The performance of the response categories was inadequate. After collapsing the seven original response categories into three, the categories were functional, the unidimensionality requirement was met, and data-model fit was adequate. Both person reliability and item reliability were adequate for the two subscales of ERQ. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the cognitive reappraisal subscale.
Given the adequate psychometric properties of the ERQ, it is suggested that the role of cognitive reappraisal in driving contexts be explored in depth.
关于情绪调节在驾驶中的作用，人们知之甚少。本研究分析了在驾驶员样本中评估情绪调节能力的最常用测试之一的心理测量特性。
共有 318 名男性驾驶员（M 年龄=41.6 岁，SD=11.1，年龄范围 20-69 岁，一半有道路交通违章，另一半为匹配的对照）参加了这项研究，他们通过填写情绪调节问卷（ERQ）来完成。数据分析采用了 Rasch 评分量表模型（RSM）。
反应类别表现不佳。将原来的七个反应类别合并为三个后，类别具有功能性，满足了单维性要求，数据模型拟合度良好。ERQ 的两个分量表的个体可靠性和项目可靠性都足够。在认知重评分量表上，两组之间存在显著差异。
鉴于 ERQ 具有足够的心理测量特性，建议深入探讨认知重评在驾驶环境中的作用。
