Deenz Emotional Abuse Scale (DEAS)

Normative and Psychometric Statistics
STRONG N=308 α=0.899 35Countries

Deenz Emotional Abuse Scale (DEAS) normative dataset currently contains 308 participant records collected between Jun 11, 2026 and Jul 18, 2026 .

This psychometric dataset currently includes 308 anonymous participant responses collected through voluntary participation. The observed mean score was 61.14 with a standard deviation of 14.02, indicating moderate score variability within the sampled population. Internal consistency reliability analysis demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach alpha = 0.899). Observed skewness (-0.11) and kurtosis (0.53) were examined as indicators of distribution quality. The score distribution appeared reasonably balanced and did not suggest substantial departures from normality.

Item Analysis Interpretation

Item–total correlations were generally strong across the assessment, indicating that most items contribute effectively to the measurement of the underlying construct. The analysis identified9 itemsthat may benefit from future review.

Items Recommended for Future Review
  • Q8 (r = 0.28)
    I feel proud of the things I do well.
  • Q14 (r = 0.29)
    I feel I cannot handle problems on my own.
  • Q17 (r = 0.28)
    I feel suspicious of people’s intentions.
  • Q18 (r = 0.22)
    I find it hard to trust people around me.
  • Q20 (r = 0.28)
    I worry about being betrayed by someone I trust.
  • Q24 (r = 0.29)
    I feel that people may take advantage of me.
  • Q32 (r = 0.29)
    I feel restricted in talking about my thoughts.
  • Q44 (r = 0.28)
    I feel emotionally exposed around others.
  • Q48 (r = 0.14)
    I worry about being judged or rejected.
The lowest item–total correlation was observed for Q48 ("I worry about being judged or rejected."; r = 0.14), indicating comparatively weaker alignment with the overall construct.

Normative Data Notice

A total of 308 participant responses were available for this assessment. Dimension-level norms were calculated using 308 valid response records. Approximately 0 response record(s) were excluded from dimension-level normative calculations due to incomplete response patterns.

Limitations

Normative statistics are derived from voluntary participation and may not represent all populations. Reliability estimates, percentile norms, and dimension statistics should be interpreted in the context of the current sample and may change as additional responses are collected.
