guilt assessment scales

Guilt assessment scales are tools used by mental health professionals to measure the intensity and nature of an individual's feelings of guilt. These scales involve questionnaires or interviews that help identify how often, how strongly, and in what ways a person experiences guilt related to specific situations or general feelings. They assist clinicians in understanding whether guilt is impacting mental health, guiding treatment decisions. Essentially, these scales provide a structured way to evaluate guilt, ensuring that assessments are accurate and consistent across different individuals.
