TL;DR
Assessment of the construct and incremental validity of self-reported emotion dysregulation over and above childhood trauma and negative affect in predicting a range of psychopathology supports the conceptualization of emotion Dysregulation as a distinct and clinically meaningful construct associated with psychiatric distress that is not reducible to negative affect.
Abstract
Results support the conceptualization of emotion dysregulation as a distinct and clinically meaningful construct associated with psychiatric distress that is not reducible to negative affect. Emotion dysregulation is a key component in a range of psychiatric symptoms and disorders and a core target for psychopharmacologic and psychosocial treatment interventions.
