“…Insecure attachment is a concept first articulated by John Bowlby in his development of attachment theory (Bowlby, 1988), and insecure attachment style in adults is thought to be based to a significant degree on suboptimal experiences with early caregiving (Carlson, 1998; Sroufe, 2005; Simard et al, 2011). Subcategories of insecure attachment styles vary between measurement instruments, and include divisions such as anxious versus avoidant, ambivalent versus avoidant, and preoccupied versus fearful versus dismissing (Ravitz et al, 2010).…”

“…Similarly, for adolescents and children, there have been a substantial amount of studies which have indicated a strong link between EMS and psychopathological symptoms and mental disorders (Bakshi Bojed & Nikmanesh, 2013;Calvete, 2008Calvete, , 2014Calvete, Orue, & Hankin, 2013a, 2013b, 2015Damiano, Reece, Reid, Atkins, & Patton, 2015;González-Jiménes & del Mar Hernández-Romera, 2014;Lawrence, Allen, & Chanen, 2011;Lumley & Harkness, 2007;Muris, 2006;Orue, Calvete, & Padilla, 2014;Richardson, 2005;Roelofs, Lee, Ruijten, & Lobbestael, 2011;Roelofs, Onckels, & Muris, 2013;Simard, Moss, & Pascuzzo, 2011;Van Vlierberghe & Braet, 2007;Van Vlierberghe, Braet, Bosmans, Rosseel, & Bögels, 2010).

Childhood experiences are considered to be of crucial importance in the formation of maladaptive schemas, according to Young's concept. Although some schema questionnaires already exist for children, these instruments differ in their schema structures with between 8 and 12 identified factors. To obtain a deeper understanding of early maladaptive schemas in childhood an instrument based on Young's 18-schema model was constructed (Dusseldorf Illustrated Schema Questionnaire for Children (DISC)). Cartoons were designed which represented each schema, providing children with a visual impression of what was meant by the schema, and thus the questions that they had to answer. The items were phrased as self-report statements and children's approval of the statements was assessed using a 4-point rating scale. The resulting preliminary questionnaire (18 cartoons, 90 items) was presented in classrooms across different school types (N = 569, between 8 and 13 years). A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed on this data to confirm the factorial structure of the questionnaire and to reduce the number of items to two items per schema. The DISC in its final version included 36 items and showed a sufficiently high test-retest reliability and convergent validity when assessed in comparison to another schema questionnaire for children. In addition, the present test is of predictive value since the DISC sum score correlated with ratings on the children's behavioral problems. CFA showed a satisfactory goodness-of-fit based on the original 18-factor model, providing a compact instrument to assess schema representations and to evaluate the dynamics of maladaptation during child development.

“…This model of the Self generates a feeling of fundamental uncertainty and a permanent pursuit of confirmation from the Other. In fact, regarding the early maladaptive schemas in adults, recent studies identify considerably higher levels of dependence/incompetence in the participants with preoccupied attachment styles compared to the secure ones (Simard, Moss, & Pascuzzo, 2011). Our hypothesis was based on this key element.…”

This study uses a new classification of suggestion-related phenomena and investigates the relationship between attachment styles and reaction to suggestion. The authors used 3 traditional experimental tasks: a stimulus-misinformation task, an inkblot perception task, and a subjective estimation of a nonexistent difference task. A measure of adult attachment was also taken. Participants with a high attachment insecurity as opposed to those with a low one were less influenced by suggestions in the recall phase of the memory task. Results are discussed within the framework of suggestion models, the dual models of social behavior, and the adult attachment model. Implications of findings are limited to simple suggestion rather than the more complex set of responses related to hypnotizability.
