Validation of the Differential Emotions Scale-Ⅳ(DES-Ⅳ) in a Korean population

The purpose of the study was to examine validity and reliability of a Korean version of the Differential Emotions Scale-IV (DES-IV, Izard, Libero, Putnam, & Haynes, 1993). The DES-IV is a self-report questionnaire measuring twelve discrete emotions of joy, enjoyment, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, fear, guilt, shame, shyness, and hostility inward. A total of 867 undergraduates in Korea participated in the study. Participants completed a set of questionnaires including the Korean version of the DES-IV, Positive Affect and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), Big Five Inventory (BFI), and Symptom Cheklist-90- Revision (SCL-90-R). All twelve emotion factors showed adequate internal consistency, item-total correlations, and test-retest reliability over a week period. In particular, shame, shyness, and hostility inward showed robust temporal stability. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the twelve factor structure of the DES-IV when all factors were correlated each other. The DES-IV factors were adequately related to the positive emotion and negative emotion factors of the PANAS, supporting good convergent and discriminant validity. Finally, differential relationships between emotions and Big Five personality factors, as well as emotions and psychopathology were examined. In conclusion, the DES-IV is a valid measure of twelve discrete emotions in a Korean population.
