We developed the Self-Conscious Emotion Regulatory Efficacy Scale (SCERES) to assess self-efficacy in managing shame/embarrassment, guilt, envy, and pride, and tested it using a sample of 674 university students from mainland China. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to determine the structure of the SCERES. Its internal consistency and stability were evaluated by examining composite and test–retest reliability. Construct validity was also examined. The results showed that the SCERES has good psychometric properties and can be considered a reliable and valid instrument for the measurement of self-conscious emotion regulatory efficacy.https://doi.org/10.1177/2158244016664771
