Frequently Asked Questions
What does this questionnaire measure?
It measures current emotional state at the time of completion. Results reflect a brief snapshot rather than stable traits.
How long does it take to complete and how many items are included?
Completion typically takes about 1 minute. It includes 4 items.
How should items be rated?
Each item is rated by selecting the response that best matches how strongly the feeling is experienced right now. Responses should be based on the present moment, not on the past week or typical mood.
How should results be interpreted?
Scores indicate relative intensity on several core emotional dimensions at the moment of testing. Interpretation is most informative when compared across repeated administrations or alongside clinical context.
How often can it be administered?
It can be repeated as needed to track changes during a day, session, or intervention. For comparability, use the same instructions and similar conditions each time.
