Popis: The aim of the present research is to examine (a) the psychometric properties and the structure of regulation of negative affect in the different facets of Puente’s model (2015) among seven countries.Globally, our results confirm the structural validity of dimensions of regulations and types of strategies across 6 countries. One of the most important findings of this study is that various forms of affect regulation show a reliable structure in different aspects or phases of affect regulation. Also, it provides an instrument that enables reliable diagnoses of functional self- regulation. Confirmatory factor analyses support the structure of 32items MARS (Páez et al., 2012). Consistent with previous research, the results of these analyses show a satisfactory fit with the three affect regulation systems: direct and indirect modification of situation through asking for social support, deployment of attention and cognitive change, and emotional response modulation. The invariance analyses should be performed for future work.
