Validation of the Korean Version of the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (K-ERQ) in a Clinical Sample

The K-ERQ was validated using a clinical sample of psychiatric patients (n=193). Confirmatory factor analysis supported the two-factor structure, but only after the removal of one item (CFI=.96, TLI=.94, RMSEA=.07, SRMR=.05). Findings suggest that the 9-itemed K-ERQ is a psychometrically sound instrument within the Korean clinical population.
