Abstract
Distress tolerance (DT), or the ability to tolerate aversive experiences, is assessed with different behavioral tasks (BTs) and self-report (SR) measures. This study tested theoretically viable structural models of DT and found that BTs and SR measures do not assess the same underlying construct, nor two separate measurement-based constructs.
