description Previous studies show that difficulties in emotional regulation are associated with an increased risk of mental health problems in college students. Therefore, in Argentina, the Difficulties in Emotional Regulation Scale (DERS) has been adapted specifically for this population; however, there is still no normative data that allows its use in clinical settings or for classification purposes. The main objective of this study was to obtain scales for the interpretation of the DERS with a sample of 403 university students from Río Cuarto, using percentiles and T-scores. The scores demonstrated high reliability, indicating that they are accurate for classifying individuals. The normative data provided allows the scale to be used in screening evaluations in combination with other sources of information.

Se ha demostrado en estudios previos que las dificultades en la regulación emocional se asocian con un aumento del riesgo de problemas de salud mental en estudiantes universitarios. Por ello, en Argentina se ha adaptado la Escala de Dificultades en la Regulación Emocional (DERS, por sus siglas en inglés) específicamente para esta población, sin embargo, aún no existen datos normativos que permitan utilizarla en entornos clínicos o para propósitos de clasificación. El objetivo principal de este estudio fue obtener baremos para la interpretación de la DERS con una muestra de 403 estudiantes universitarios de Río Cuarto mediante percentiles y puntuaciones T. Los puntajes demostraron una alta fiabilidad, lo que indica que son precisos para clasificar a los individuos. Los datos normativos proporcionados permiten utilizar la escala en evaluaciones de screening, en combinación con otras fuentes de información. Facultad de Psicología.
