The mDES measures the extent to which positive and negative emotions have been experienced within a particular time frame (e.g., within last 24 hours). Contains 20 questions (10 based on positive emotions and 10 based on negative emotions). Scoring: 1) You can report scores on EACH item, 2) sum all of the positive scores to get a total positive emotions score and sum all of the negative emotions to get a total negative emotions score, or 3) you
can sum all of the positive emotions scores and divide it by 10 to get a
mean score and sum all of the negative emotions scores and divide
it by 10 (because there are 10 positive questions and 10 negative
emotions) to get a mean score between 0-4.
