| Aim and Background: The aim of the present study was to develop a short form of the Persian version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-P-Short) and to examine its reliability and validity. Methods and Materials: The CERQ-P was administrated to 420 (220 male and 200 female) Iranian university students in 2009-2010 academic year. Following stepwise omission of the items with the highest ‘alpha if item deleted’ on the basis of reliability analyses results, the CERQ-P-Short was constructed. The validity of this questionnaire was assessed through the principal component analysis using varimax rotation, correlations between subscales, and criterion validity. Findings: The results of Cronbach’s alpha (ranged from 0.68 to 0.82) showed that the nine subscales of the CERQ-P-Short possessed good reliability. Principal component analysis explained 75% of the variance and supported the original nine-factor CERQ model. The correlations among the subscales were moderately high. Finally, with respect to criterion validity, several CERQ-P-Short subscales were uniquely associated with symptoms of depression. Conclusions: The short form of Persian version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-P) has good psychometric properties. |
