DERS + Correction

This document presents the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), a 28-item questionnaire designed to assess difficulties in emotion regulation. The questionnaire measures five subscales: awareness of emotions, clarity of emotions, acceptance of emotions, emotional interference in functioning, and control of emotions. Participants indicate how often they experience each item on a scale from 1 to 5, and the scores on each subscale and total provide a measure.
