Resumo
The EMWSS-A is a self-report questionnaire that measures recall of feeling warm, safe and cared for in childhood, i.e., early positive memories of warmth and affect (e.g., "I felt secure and safe"; "I felt that I was a cherished member of my family"). This is a 21-item scale rated on a 5-point Likert scale (0= No, never; 1= Yes, but rarely; 2= Yes, sometimes; 3= Yes, often; 4= Yes, most of the time). The confirmatory factor analysis of the Portuguese version of the EMWSS-A presented, like its original version, an interpretable single component structure, excellent estimated internal consistency, good test-retest reliability, and convergence with similar scales.
