Investigation of Psychometric and Some Demographic Properties of “Emotion Regulation Scale for Children” in Gifted Students

Abstract

This study aims to conduct validity and reliability analysis of the Emotion Regulation Scale for Children developed by Rydell et al. (2007) for gifted primary school students. It also aimed to investigate the differences among students' emotion regulation skills according to demographic variables such as gender, grade level, and the number of siblings. For this purpose, 501 gifted students (223 girls, 278 boys) attending primary school were reached. The ages of the students ranged between 7-11, and the mean age was 8.96. The study used the emotion Regulation Scale for Children and personal information form. The construct-concept validity of the scale was determined by confirmatory factor analysis, and its reliability was determined by calculating Cronbach's Alpha internal consistency coefficient. Findings yielded that the Emotion Regulation Scale for Children is a valid and reliable instrument that can be used with gifted primary school students. Another study result was that the emotion regulation skill levels of gifted students did not show a significant difference according to gender and the number of siblings but showed a low difference according to grade level.
