Hello All!
I am currently writing my dissertation on the maladaptive repercussions of childhood emotional maltreatment (psychological maltreatment) on adult attachment systems and romantic relationships. In general most measurement tools are inclusive of all forms of maltreatment. At this point I'm considering extracting the specific items from established questionnaires (eg. FEQ, CATS, CTQ). Other than ECR (ECR-R), are there any other valid scales that predominately focus on adult CEM and attachment? If so, what are they and do they require permission? Thank you in advance for your help!
Use of the CTQ & ECR-R sounds good to me. A recent issue of American Psychologist was devoted to adverse childhood events, and you could take a look there for more ideas.
For those also interested in the relationship between attachment systems and adult survivors of CEM, I found Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987) and Early Maladaptive Schemas (Young, 1999) as potential indexes.

A handbook suggests community-based surveys on prevalence as the most appropriate method in setting up a child maltreatment surveillance system and proposes the use of one of three established child maltreatment questionnaires, based on the results of a rapid systematic review of child abuse measures. https://www.euro.who.int/__data/assets/pdf_file/0003/317505/Measuring-monitoring-national-prevalence-child-maltreatment-practical-handbook.pdf
