contents <p>This paper presents the development and pilot validation protocol for the Autonomous Regulation and Boundary Integrity Scale (ARBIS-45), a 45-item multidimensional self-report instrument designed to assess nine domains of self-regulation, autonomy, and interpersonal boundary management.</p> <p>The instrument integrates constructs from polyvagal theory, locus of control research, emotional regulation literature, and field observations of extraction dynamics and sovereign resilience. The nine domains include autonomic and emotional regulation, strategic non-reactivity, pattern recognition, documentation practices, boundary integrity, co-regulation capacity, outcome detachment, sustained regulation capacity, and self-ownership.</p> <p>The paper provides a detailed account of instrument development, including construct definition, item generation, and factor structure, as well as scoring procedures and preliminary interpretive ranges. It also outlines a pilot validation study design incorporating internal consistency reliability, exploratory factor analysis, and convergent validity testing with established psychological measures.</p> <p>Positioned as a research and assessment tool, ARBIS-45 is intended for use in psychological profiling, resilience research, and pre/post intervention evaluation, particularly in populations exposed to chronic stress, extraction dynamics, or institutional gaslighting.</p> <p>The framework contributes to psychometric and systems-oriented research by operationalizing the construct of psychological sovereignty through an integrated model spanning physiological, cognitive, behavioral, and interpersonal domains.</p>
