The objective of this research was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Difficulties in Emotional Regulation Scale (DERS) by Gratz and Romer (2004). The sample consisted of 253 young people (27.7% men and 72.3% women) university health sciences aged between 18 and 25 years (M = 21.70, SD = 1.75). Of this sample, 120 young people were surveyed virtually and 133, were surveyed in person. First, the validity of the internal structure was analyzed by exploratory factor analysis (AFE), where a KMO of .86 was obtained and a Bartlett sphericity test was statistically significant (p <.001). As a result of the DIE of the DIE, we have obtained 5 factors (Difficulties in the Regulation of Impulses, Emotional Acceptance, Emotional Consciousness, Behavior Interference and Emotional Clarity) of the 6 elements that explain 44.96% of the variance. Regarding the relationships of convergence with the Emotional Self-Regulation Scale, there are correlations not so high, although statistically significant between the dimensions. Regarding the cognitive reassessment dimension, it correlates negatively, low and inversely with the dimensions of the DERS (Difficulties in the regulation of impulses and lack of emotional acceptance). Also, the dimension of emotional suppression correlates positively, lowly and directly with one dimension. In terms of reliability, the values of Cronbach's alpha were acceptable (between .72 and .86), as well as the omega coefficient (between .74 and .87). Finally, it is concluded that the scale has psychometric properties for its use in similar samples.
