Introduction: This study sought to validate a French version of the Test of self-conscious affect-3 (TOSCA-3) (Tangney et al., 2000), which is a self-reporting measure of self-conscious emotions such as shame and guilt. Method: A sample of 431 undergraduates completed the French TOSCA-3 and other related psychological constructs. Results: The TOSCA-3 exhibited satisfactory internal, test-retest, and discriminant validity similar to the original American version. Moreover, the gender difference in shame and guilt was replicated. Discussion: This dispositional measure of shame and guilt was the first made available in French and offers acceptable psychonometric qualities.
