cognitive emotion regulation scale	Two months	The scale consists of 36 items, with 9 subscales and 4 items in each subscale. Each subscale receives a value between 4-20 points and the scale is a 5-point Likert type scale (1: Never, 2: Sometimes, 47 3: Regularly, 4: Frequently, 5: Always).Evaluation is made with the scores obtained from the subscales.
