Abstract

The Emotional Expressivity Scale (EES) is a commonly used self-report measure of emotional expressivity. The current study aimed to evaluate the factor structure of the Chinese version of EES among a group of healthy college students using both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Preliminary exploratory factor analysis revealed the presence of two factors, namely the emotional suppression and emotional expression. A subsequent confirmatory factor analysis using an independent sample confirmed this 2-factor structure of the Chinese version of EES.
