Reactivity of Emotions in Adolescents - Caregivers' Tool (React): Development and Validation of a Novel Parent-Rated Measure for Assessing Emotional Dysregulation in Youth.

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Emotional Dysregulation (ED) is characterized by the inability to manage emotions effectively, leading to maladaptive behaviors, and often co-occurs with psychiatric conditions carrying significant long-term consequences. Early diagnosis of ED is thus essential for targeted interventions. To address this need, we developed and validated the "Reactivity of Emotions in Adolescents: Caregivers' Tool" (REACT), a novel parent-rated questionnaire designed to assess ED in adolescents.
