- Abstract
The Experiences Questionnaire measures decentering, the state of observing thoughts and feelings as temporary events in the mind. This study developed the Japanese version of the Experiences Questionnaire (J-EQ). The fit indices in confirmatory factor analysis (n=297) suggested an acceptable fit to a model consistent with the original. The correlations (n=411) between the J-EQ and the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II, the Affective Control Scale, the Ruminative Response Scale, and the Cognitive Control Scale showed adequate construct validity. Internal consistency (n411) and test-retest correlations of factors (n=54) indicated good reliability of the J-EQ. The J-EQ can be used to examine the influence of decentering on psychopathology.
