Higher scores indicate stronger expression of the corresponding aspect of emotional dysregulation.
• Affective Instability: reflects a cyclic pattern of sudden mood shifts between positive and negative emotional states.
• Negative Emotionality: reflects the tendency to experience strong negative feelings – sadness, worry, anxiety, dissatisfaction – more often and more easily than others.
• Emotional Impulsivity: over-reactivity to negative or frustrating stimuli combined with difficulty inhibiting impulsive emotional and behavioral responses.
• Negative Emotion Dysregulation (composite of AI + NE + EI): an overall index of emotional dysregulation focused on its negative aspects.
• Positive Emotionality: reflects the tendency to experience strong positive feelings – euphoria, enthusiasm, and exuberance – more often and more easily than others.
