Como motivação pró-social, a compaixão tende a promover maior envolvimento em mentalidades de cuidado e ações de senso coletivo, capacidades prejudicadas pelos medos da compaixão. O estudo objetivou investigar o papel dos medos da compaixão em fatores envolvidos no engajamento às medidas de distanciamento social. 284 adultos (idade média = 36,47) responderam as Escalas de Medos da Compaixão, Escala de Dificuldades de Regulação Emocional e um questionário sobre engajamento aos protocolos contra a COVID-19. Um modelo de path analysis explicou 32% da variância na adesão aos protocolos por duas vias: o medo de ser compassivo por outros diminui o engajamento por motivações pró-sociais; enquanto os medos de expressar compaixão por si e outros predizem maiores dificuldades de regulação emocional, diminuindo a aderência por exaustão emocional. Oportunizar o desenvolvimento da compaixão pode contribuir para um enfrentamento mais saudável às dificuldades emocionais suscitadas pela pandemia e no envolvimento em ações coletivas.

“…For the assessment of emotion regulation, the Di culties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) will be used. The DERS is an empirically grounded assessment instrument measuring emotional regulation using a multidimensional framework, developed by Gratz and Roemer (2004), and validated in Brazil by Miguel et al (2017) with its psychometric properties con rmed (α = .94 for the overall scale, ranging from 0.79 to 0.88 on subscales; Cancian et al, 2018). The DERS assesses several facets of emotion regulation, including di culties relevant to an individual's (a) acceptance of emotional responses, (b) ability to engage in goal-directed behaviour under distress, (c) ability to control impulsive behaviours when distressed, (d) access to emotion regulation strategies, and (e) emotional clarity.…”

Introduction: Emotion regulation difficulties have been associated with mental disorders and sexual dysfunctions. Traditional face-to-face transdiagnostic emotion regulation interventions have shown positive results for emotional and personality disorders. Only recently have the effects of these interventions on sexual health started to be investigated. Internet-delivered psychological interventions have several advantages over face-to-face interventions, such as cost-effectiveness, accessibility and suitability for people who experience shame because of their stigmatized problematic behaviors and those who avoid seeking help. The aims of the SHER 2 - TREpS (Portuguese acronym for Emotion Regulation training for sexual health) project are: a) determine the efficacy of an Internet-based emotion regulation intervention for sexual health and sexual satisfaction, and; b) explore the effects of the intervention on (1) emotion regulation skills; (2) mental health; (3) sexual self-perception. Methods and AnalysisThe study will use a randomized controlled trial design. Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to one of two groups: intervention (Internet-based emotion regulation training) or waitlist control. Assessments will take place before the start of the trial, at the end of the trial and at 6-month follow up, after which participants assigned to the waitlist control condition will receive the same intervention. Primary outcomes include sexual function and satisfaction, and secondary outcomes self-report measures of depression, anxiety, difficulties in emotion regulation, and sexual self-perception. This intervention study is financed by the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNS). Ethics and dissemination: Ethics approval was obtained from the Ethics Review Panel of the University of Luxembourg. Findings will be disseminated via peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations.

“…A nivel mundial existen, a lo menos, 15 instrumentos que permiten medir la regulación emocional en la adultez 30 y uno de los más utilizados para evaluar las DRE es la Escala de Dificultades de Regulación Emocional (Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale) (DERS) 6 , por ser un instrumento que permite capturar el carácter multidimensional de este constructo, desde una conceptualización integradora del mismo. A la fecha, se cuenta con adaptaciones y validaciones de la DERS en distintos países del mundo [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] , incluyendo Chile 30 ; sin embargo, y para el contexto chileno, no se dispone hasta ahora de normas de interpretación que permitan su uso como medida de tamizaje o como referencia para la toma de decisiones en contextos clínicos. Las buenas propiedades psicométricas de la versión chilena del DERS 30 que justifican su utilización, se refrendan a partir de un estudio en que, al evaluar el rigor psicométrico de diversas escalas de regulación emocional ocupadas en población hispanoparlante (DERS-E), esta versión ocupó el tercer lugar de un total de 34 instrumentos revisados 39 .…”

Cutoff points of the difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale for the Chilean population Background: There are no reference values for the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-E) for the Chilean population. Aim: To elaborate reference values for the interpretation of the DERS-E for the Chilean population. Material and Methods: The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale was answered by participants from the general population (1,153 heterosexual men and women and 467 gay and lesbian individuals) and a group of 351 participants with emotional complaints. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to obtain the reference values. A concordance index was determined, and the odds ratio was calculated to evaluate the probability of having mental health problems comparing participants with emotional complaints with those from the general population. Results: The DERS-E cutoff score was 73 points for the Chilean population. No differences were detected for emotional regulation difficulties between men and women or by sexual orientation. Age had a weak association with emotional regulation difficulties. Conclusions: DERS-E has an adequate diagnostic capacity, allowing to differentiate between those who have high or low emotional regulation difficulties.
