The crisis in child and adolescent mental health and wellbeing has prompted the development of school and community-based interventions to tackle negative emotions towards the self. Providing an evidence-base for such interventions is therefore a priority for policy makers and practitioners. This paper presents the first systematic review of self-referential and self-report measures of negative emotions for use with non-clinical child/adolescent populations, and evaluation of their psychometric properties. A systematic search of electronic databases and grey literature was conducted. Peer reviewed articles that introduced a new measure or included psychometric evaluation of a negative self-referential emotion for children and/or adolescents were identified. Study characteristics were extracted, and psychometric properties rated using internationally recognised quality criteria. Initially, 98 measures designed for evaluating children and adolescents’ negative self-referential emotions were found. Measures were primarily excluded if they were intended for clinical diagnosis or did not focus on self-referential emotions. The remaining eight measures (Brief Shame and Guilt Questionnaire; Self-Consciousness Scale-Children; Shame and Guilt Scale for Adolescents; Test of Self-Conscious Affect- Adolescents; The Child-Adolescent Perfectionism Scale [CAPS]; Child and Adolescent Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale Revised; Children Automatic Thoughts Scale [CATS]; Negative Affect Self-Statement Questionnaire) were organised into domains consisting of self-conscious emotions, self-oriented perfectionism and negative self-cognitions. Psychometric quality ratings identified the CAPS (Flett et al. in J Psychoeduc Assess 34:634–652, 2016) and the CATS (Schniering and Rapee in Behav Res Ther 40:1091–1109, 2002) as having the strongest psychometric qualities. However, all reviewed measures lacked full evaluation of essential psychometric properties. Our review revealed a paucity of self-referential emotional measures suitable for assessing adverse negative self-referential emotions in general child and adolescent populations. Measures suitable for use in non-clinical samples were identified, but these require further evaluation and/or new scale developments are needed. The psychometric findings and methodological issues identified will guide researchers and practitioners to make evidence-based decisions in order to select optimal measures.

儿童和青少年心理健康和福祉的危机促使学校和社区干预措施的发展，以解决对自我的负面情绪。因此，为此类干预提供证据基础是决策者和从业者的优先事项。本文首次系统回顾了用于非临床儿童/青少年人群的负面情绪的自我参照和自我报告措施，并评估了他们的心理测量特性。对电子数据库和灰色文献进行了系统搜索。确定了引入新措施或包括对儿童和/或青少年的负面自我参照情绪进行心理测量评估的同行评审文章。提取研究特征，和使用国际公认的质量标准评定的心理测量属性。最初，发现了 98 项旨在评估儿童和青少年负面自我参照情绪的措施。如果措施旨在用于临床诊断或不关注自我指涉情绪，则主要排除在外。其余八项措施（简要羞耻和内疚问卷；自我意识量表-儿童；青少年羞耻和内疚量表；自我意识影响测试-青少年；儿童-青少年完美主义量表[CAPS]；儿童和青少年功能障碍态度量表修订版；儿童自动思维量表 [CATS]；负面影响自我陈述问卷）被组织成由自觉情绪、自我导向完美主义和负面自我认知组成的领域。心理测量质量评级确定 CAPS（Flett 等人在 J Psychoeduc Assess 34:634–652, 2016）和 CATS（Schniering and Rapee in Behav Res Ther 40:1091–1109, 2002）具有最强的心理测量质量。然而，所有审查的措施都缺乏对基本心理测量特性的全面评估。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年群体不利的负面自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。在 J Psychoeduc Assess 34:634–652, 2016) 和 CATS（Schniering and Rapee in Behav Res Ther 40:1091–1109, 2002）具有最强的心理测量品质。然而，所有审查的措施都缺乏对基本心理测量特性的全面评估。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年群体不利的负面自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。在 J Psychoeduc Assess 34:634–652, 2016) 和 CATS（Schniering and Rapee in Behav Res Ther 40:1091–1109, 2002）具有最强的心理测量品质。然而，所有审查的措施都缺乏对基本心理测量特性的全面评估。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年人群负面消极自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。2002）作为具有最强的心理测量品质。然而，所有审查的措施都缺乏对基本心理测量特性的全面评估。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年人群负面消极自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。2002）作为具有最强的心理测量品质。然而，所有审查的措施都缺乏对基本心理测量特性的全面评估。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年人群负面消极自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年群体不利的负面自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。我们的审查显示，缺乏适用于评估一般儿童和青少年群体不利的负面自我参照情绪的自我参照情绪测量方法。确定了适用于非临床样本的措施，但这些措施需要进一步评估和/或需要新的规模开发。确定的心理测量结果和方法论问题将指导研究人员和从业人员做出基于证据的决策，以选择最佳措施。
