Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Chinese version of the Perceived Emotional Expression Scale for adolescents

Following rigorous translation and validation procedures, the PEES-GAP has been adapted for use in China, demonstrating robust psychometric properties. It has emerged as a valid tool for assessing perceived family emotional expression among the general adolescent population in China. Furthermore, this scale may also serve as a crucial instrument for researchers in the fields of psychology and mental health to conduct relevant research, as well as for clinical professionals to develop targeted intervention strategies addressing adolescents' emotional issues.
