“…The present study was based on data from a cohort study on BD patients enrolled in a specialized mood disorder clinic at Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark (Nilsson, 2012;Nilsson et al, 2012). The patients in the cohort had all been diagnosed with BD in agreement with the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision criteria (World Health Organization, 1994) upon admission to the clinic.…”

“…Previous research indicates that BD patients generally have more severe EMSs than control subjects and major depressive disorder patients (Hawke and Provencher, 2012a;Mehmet et al, 2011;Nilsson et al, 2015). In BD patients, higher EMS scores have furthermore been associated with functional impairments (Nilsson, 2012). Thus, EMSs may provide insight into the characteristic and illness course of BD.…”

Early Maladaptive Schemas in Bipolar Disorder Patients With and Without Suicide Attempts

Patients with bipolar disorder (BD) are at an increased risk of attempted and completed suicide. To elucidate the beliefs and assumptions associated with suicidality in BD, the present study compared BD patients with and without a history of suicide attempt in terms of early maladaptive schemas (EMSs). The sample consisted of 49 remitted BD patients who completed the Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Version. Information on suicide attempts was obtained through interviews combined with medical records. Compared with BD patients without suicide attempts, the BD patients with suicide attempts scored significantly higher on 3 EMSs: social isolation, practical incompetence, and entitlement. The findings suggest that specific EMSs may be implicated in suicidal behaviors in BD. These results have implications for the assessment and treatment of suicidality in BD.

“…A number of methodological drawbacks need to be considered when interpreting the findings. First, as described elsewhere (Halvorsen et al, 2009;Halvorsen et al, 2010;Nilsson, 2012;Nilsson et al, 2010a), the assessment procedures used at two data-collection sites differed with regard to specific symptom measures and initial recruitment strategies. The present findings should therefore be considered provisional and in need of further replication.…”

“…The sample consisted of two mood disorder cohorts which have been used for other research purposes in previously published studies (Halvorsen et al, 2009;Halvorsen et al, 2010;Nilsson, 2012;Nilsson et al, 2010a). The inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of either MDD or BD and current remission defined as the absence of major affective episodes established by clinical interviews.…”

“…The inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of either MDD or BD and current remission defined as the absence of major affective episodes established by clinical interviews. The procedures and measures are described in earlier publications (Halvorsen et al, 2009;Halvorsen et al, 2010;Nilsson, 2012;Nilsson et al, 2010a). The participants with MDD were furthermore required to have at least two past depressive episodes in order to match the minimum number of affective episodes required for a diagnosis of BD according to the diagnostic criteria of ICD-10 (WHO, 1993).…”

Early maladaptive schemas are relevant psychological dimensions to consider in remitted phases of major mood disorders. Findings from the current study suggest that early maladaptive schemas are more prevalent in adults with bipolar disorder compared to adults with major depressive disorder when measured during remission. Interventions targeting early maladaptive schemas may be valuable in treatment of bipolar disorder.

The main purpose of this study was to examine whether adult patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) demonstrate sets of dysfunctional cognitive beliefs and behavioural tendencies according to Jeffrey Young's schema-focused therapy model. Sets of dysfunctional beliefs (maladaptive schemas) were assessed with the Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ-S2) in 78 adult ADHD patients and 80 control subjects. Patients with ADHD scored significantly higher than the control group on almost all maladaptive schemas. The 'Failure', 'Defectiveness/Shame', 'Subjugation' and 'Emotional Deprivation' schemas were most pronounced in adult ADHD patients, while only 'Vulnerability to Harm or Illness' did not differ between the two groups. The schemas which were most pronounced in adult patients with ADHD correspond well with their learning histories and core symptoms. By demonstrating the existence of early maladaptive schemas in adults suffering from ADHD, this study suggests that schema theory may usefully be applied to adult ADHD therapy.
