“…Each YCI item is rated on a 6-point Likert scale from 1 ('completely untrue of me') to 6 ('describes me perfectly'). The YCI has satisfactory validity and reliability (LuKaraosmanoglu et al, 2013;Sundag et al, 2018). The internal consistency of YCI in the current study was .88.…”

Background: There is no published evidence about the psychometric properties of the Cognitive Behavioral Avoidance Scale (CBAS) in Eastern cultures. Aims: The current research evaluated the psychometric properties of a Persian version of the CBAS. Method: The research consisted of two studies. In Study 1, a university student sample (n = 702) completed the CBAS, the Beck Depression Inventory-II, the Thought Control Questionnaire and the Anxious Thoughts Inventory. In Study 2, a general population sample (n = 384) and a clinical sample (n = 152) completed the CBAS, the Young Compensation Inventory and the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale-21. Results: Exploratory factor analysis of the data from Study 1 suggested a four-factor solution for CBAS. The CBAS had acceptable internal consistency and test–re-test reliability, and showed significant correlations with depression symptoms and anxious thoughts. Confirmatory factor analysis of the data from Study 2 indicated good fit between the four-factor model and data. The CBAS had a significant relationship with depression, anxiety and stress symptoms, but no associations with schema compensatory behaviour strategy. Finally, the CBAS and its subscales successfully distinguished a clinical sample from a general population sample. Conclusions: The findings provide preliminary evidence for reliability and validity of the CBAS among Iranian student, general population and clinical samples.

“…The schema therapy puts more emphasis on the relation therapy, emotional experience, and discussion of early life experiences, which is based on the early maladaptive schemas [19]. Young believed that the schema is superior to other short-term therapies for the treatment of severe and chronic psychiatric disorders, such as personality disorders, depression, and chronic anxiety, drug abuse, etc.…”

Drug addiction treatment may be associated with more challenges and problems in women compared with men. Objectives: The present research aimed at determining the impact of group schema therapy on adjusting the early maladaptive schemas in drug-dependent women. Materials and Methods: The present research was an experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population included all of the women with substance abuse disorder who referred to the addiction recovery centers in Rasht from November to December 2019. Using a randomized sampling, 60 individuals were selected and assigned into the experimental and control groups (n=30 for each group) and completed the Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form Version 3 (YSQ-S3). The experimental group was subjected to the schema therapy, whereas the control group did not receive any intervention. The data were analyzed using a one-way Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) by SPSS V. 22 software. Results: The results showed that group schema therapy decreased early maladaptive schemas, including disconnection and rejection (P<0.01), self-control and impaired performance (P<0.01), impaired limits (P<0.003), and over vigilance and inhibition (P<0.001). Conclusion: Based on the results, schema therapy reduced the dimensions of early maladaptive schemas, such as disconnection and rejection, self-control and impaired performance, impaired limits, and over vigilance and inhibition in drug-dependent women, however it did not decrease the other-directness dimension.

“…Moreover, a few studies have investigated through which mechanisms parents' EMSs lead to their children's EMSs. Sundag et al (2018) analysed the data from 60 dyads of parents and their adult children and concluded that there were significant associations between EMSs of parents and their adult children, which are also mediated through overcompensation coping style of parents and perceived adverse parenting of their adult children. In another study, Gibson and Francis (2019) examined the mediator role of parenting style on the intergenerational transfer of EMSs using 39 mother–adult daughter dyads.…”

Although existing research recognized the associations between early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) of parents and their adult children, the mechanisms that underpin these associations were not fully understood. Therefore, the purpose of the current study was to explore the role of defence styles (DSs) on the associations between two EMS domains (Disconnection/Rejection and Impaired Autonomy) of parents and their adult children. Two hundred and fifteen families (i.e., mother, father, and their adult children) participated in the study. Both parents and their adult children were asked to complete Young Schema Questionnaire‐Short Form (YSQ‐SF) and Defence Style Questionnaire (DSQ) to assess their EMS domains and DSs. According to the results of the current study, there were significant associations between Disconnection/Rejection and Impaired Autonomy EMS domains of parents and their adult children, and these associations were mediated by only immature DS of parents and their adult children in a serial mediation model. These results contributed to our understanding of the associations between EMS domains of parents and their adult children through immature DSs. Moreover, our findings highlighted the importance of synthesizing the concepts of different theories to enhance our understanding of mental representations in families.
