Abstract

Emotion regulation has been considered a vital mechanism for psychological and physical health. The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) was originally developed by Gross and John to measure the emotion regulation strategies of cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression. Given the practical importance of functional emotion regulation for psychological assessment in the Taiwanese cultural context, this study examined the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the ERQ in a sample of 909 Taiwanese college students. Results showed that the independent two-factor measurement model was an adequate representation of the structure of the Chinese-ERQ. Reliability and criterion validity of the Chinese-ERQ were also demonstrated. The scalar invariant model across genders was supported and male students reported using suppression to a greater degree than female students. Overall, the Chinese-ERQ is a valuable tool for assessing emotion regulation strategies in research and practice in clinical psychology. Practical implications and future research directions are discussed.

台湾大学生情绪调节问卷中文版之心理测量评估。

情绪调节一直被认为是心理和身体健康的重要机制。情绪调节问卷(ERQ)最初是由Gross和John开发的，用于测量认知重评价和表达抑制的情绪调节策略。鉴于台湾文化背景下，功能情绪调节对心理评估的实际重要性，本研究以909名台湾大学生为样本，检验了中文版ERQ的心理测量特性。结果表明，独立的双因素测量模型能很好地反映中国人的erq结构。本文还验证了中文版erq的信度和效度。跨性别的标量不变模型得到支持，男生比女生使用抑制的程度更大。总之，在临床心理学的研究和实践中，中国式erq是评估情绪调节策略的有价值的工具。讨论了实际意义和未来的研究方向。
