In this study a questionnaire (Responsibility Questionnaire) was developed for measuring a negative evaluation of one's own thinking focussed on beliefs concerning responsibility for harm to self or others. In a sample of 276 subjects, the 15-item Responsibility Questionnaire had a satisfactory internal consistency. As expected, higher scores on the Responsibility Questionnaire were associated with depressive mood and rigid thoughts and norms.
