摘要
Acceptance is an emotion regulation strategy with beneficial effects for mental health. The present study investigated the psychometric properties of a newly developed questionnaire which assesses the acceptance of unpleasant and pleasant emotions. The psychometric properties of the "Questionnaire for the Acceptance of Emotions (FrAGe)" were evaluated in two studies involving 171 and 207 non-clinical subjects. FrAGe consists of items regarding acceptance and suppression of unpleasant and pleasant emotions. For validation the "Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS)" and a short version of the "Symptom Checklist (SCL-K-9)" were also administered. After analysing the 40 items in the first study, we revised and shortened the questionnaire to 32 items. The second study showed satisfying characteristics regarding the items' reliability and validity. As expected for this non-clinical sample, some items for pleasant emotions showed extreme values. Results demonstrate the sound psychometric properties of FrAGe. For non-clinical subjects, one might consider focusing primarily on the scales for unpleasant emotions.
