尽管人们认识到情绪调节（ER）对于健康心理发展的重要性，但ER研究主要集中在婴儿期、幼儿期和成年期的发展阶段，而童年中期到青春期相对被忽视。在这些时期，ER 研究的一个障碍是缺乏有效的适合年龄的措施。本研究报告了儿童和青少年情绪调节问卷（ERQ-CA）的心理测量评估，这是成人测量的修订版。 ERQ-CA 对 827 名年龄在 10 至 18 岁之间的参与者进行了评估。结果表明 12 个月内具有良好的内部一致性和稳定性。还证明了合理的结构和收敛有效性。结论是，ERQ-CA 是一种有效的适合年龄的测量方法，用于调查儿童和青少年发育时期 ER 的 2 种特定策略的使用情况。
Despite the recognized importance of emotion regulation (ER) for healthy psychological development, ER research has focused predominantly on the developmental periods of infancy, early childhood, and adulthood, while the middle childhood to adolescence years have been relatively neglected. An obstacle to ER research during these periods is the paucity of valid age-appropriate measures. This study reports on the psychometric evaluation of the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (ERQ-CA), a revision of the adult measure. The ERQ-CA was evaluated with a sample of 827 participants aged between 10 and 18 years. Results indicate sound internal consistency as well as stability over a 12-month period. Sound construct and convergent validity are also demonstrated. It is concluded that the ERQ-CA is a valid age-appropriate measure for investigating the use of 2 specific strategies of ER during the childhood and adolescence developmental periods.
