This paper presents a follow-up to the initial development of the Self-Comforting and Coping Scale (SCCS), offering a detailed framework for its scoring system, conversion guidelines, and interpretive strategies. The SCCS is a theory-driven, psychometrically grounded instrument designed to assess individuals’ self-comforting behaviours and coping responses to stress. While the original paper introduced the conceptual basis and structural components of the SCCS, the current study expands its utility by establishing a standardized scoring procedure that enhances reliability, interpretability, and applicability in both research and clinical contexts. The paper outlines how individual items are scored using a modified Likert scale and describes procedures for reverse scoring and handling missing data. Domain-level scores and an overall SCCS score are derived from item responses, with conversion to a 0–100 scale using a calibrated transformation chart to accommodate minor item omissions. The scoring system is designed to be flexible yet robust, allowing for its use across diverse settings, including longitudinal and intervention studies. Guidelines for interpreting high and low scores across domains help identify emotional resilience, coping strengths, and areas requiring intervention. Importantly, the scoring system facilitates the meaningful application of the SCCS by supporting early identification of individuals at risk for poor stress management, informing targeted interventions such as cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness-based programs. This paper thus represents a crucial step in operationalizing the SCCS for broader scientific and practical use, advancing the empirical study of self-comforting as a distinct and measurable construct in mental health research.
