Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? In a German university sample, CFA and ESEM showed good fit and disattenuated correlations indicated the 18 RAEQ scales assess separable constructs, supporting emotion-specific assessment. → Stockinger 2025

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Cross-sectional survey (Study 1, 350 German university students) using CFA, ESEM, and disattenuated latent correlations of the 18 RAEQ scales. The article reports that "288(94.1%) were≤ |.50|", supporting discriminant validity across strategies and emotions; "The CFAs fit the data well, with CFIs≥ .95".
"All306disattenuatedcorrelationswere r≤|.74|,and288(94.1%) were≤ |.50|, indicating that the scales assess empirically separable constructs."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Achievement emotion regulation strategies are related to, but distinct from, general emotion regulation strategies — related
- Strategy interrelations: expression and suppression are negatively related, while social support seeking and expression are positively related across emotions — related
- Exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) differentiates victimization components better than traditional CFA, which positively biases factor correlations — a broader claim this one bears on
