Understanding your ERQ result

Emotion regulation is explored with 10 questions, using the same questionnaire and scoring as the app. Think about how you usually manage your emotions and indicate how much you agree with each statement. The app uses a CareOps translation; it is not presented as a standardized local-language edition.

Reading your results

Read the separate areas together. They describe tendencies in your answers; neither direction is automatically better. A score alone does not explain why a pattern appears in daily life.
