Behavioral and cognitive regulation of emotions is crucial for adaptation mental health. Measuring it with valid reliable instruments essential, especially in Peru. The objective the study was to evaluate psychometric properties Peruvian version Regulation Emotions Questionnaire (BERQ-PA) a sample 403 adults from Lima, aged between 18 59 years (M = 32.3, SD 10.1; 65.8% women). Participants completed BERQ-PA, Emotion (ERQ), General Health (GHQ-28). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) used assess validity internal structure. BERQ-PA scores were correlated those ERQ GHQ-28 check concurrent convergent validity. Reliability established by consistency analysis, factorial invariance according sex evaluated using multigroup CFA. CFA confirmed original five-factor model; however, two items had loadings lower than 0.40. For this reason, an alternative five-factor, 18-item model that showed optimal fit indices (S-Bχ2 299, df 125, χ2/df 2.39, CFI 0.959, TLI 0.950, RMSEA 0.048 [90% CI: 0.039-0.057], SRMR 0.069). alpha omega coefficients five subscales greater 0.70, confirming reliability. correlations BERQ, ERQ, evidenced Factorial confirmed. measure behavioral emotions, standing out its usefulness research, psychological assessment, assessment interventions context.
