“…The years with the highest number of publications are 2018 ( n = 2) and 2019 ( n = 2). The research was conducted on the populations of four continents: Europe [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 35 ], Asia [ 36 , 37 , 38 ], North America [ 29 ], and Australia [ 34 ]. All manuscripts were peer-reviewed journal articles.…”

“…The main objectives of the selected studies were: (I) to examine the interrelationship and differences between EMSs among parents and their children [ 29 , 30 , 32 , 33 ]; (II) to evaluate mediating factors between parents’ and children’s EMSs [ 34 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]; (III) examining the relationship between parents’ EMS and the characteristic features of their parenting (i.e., perceived parental competence [ 31 ], quality of the affective bonding [ 35 ].…”

“…All selected studies measured outcomes using standardized and validated self-report instruments of early maladaptive schemas (domains, modes, coping styles), based on Young’s theory of Early Maladaptive Schemas and parental styles, attitudes, and attachment. One study also used a testing tool (i.e., the Autobiographical Memory Recall Task) to evaluate mediating factors between parents’ and children’s EMSs [ 38 ]. Most studies have examined the effects of EMSs on parenting by comparing the results of different measures in dyads or families ( n = 9).…”

“…Not surprisingly, high parental scores for this domain repeatedly showed the strongest associations with children’s early maladaptive schemas, which is in line with previous research on the continuity between the generations of harsh and hostile or aggressive parenting [ 13 , 40 , 41 ]. Parents’ Disconnection/Rejection domain schemas had twofold influence: first, they were transferred directly to their children [ 34 , 36 , 38 ], second: they contributed to the development of EMSs from other domains (Dependence/Incompetence, Failure, Negativity/Pessimism, Grandiosity, Self-sacrifice, Enmeshment/Undeveloped self, Vulnerability to harm or illness, Insufficient self–control, Punitiveness, Subjugation) [ 30 , 33 , 34 , 37 ].…”

There are several factors that play a key role in the development of early maladaptive schemas, i.e., temperament, unmet core emotional needs, and adverse childhood events (e.g., traumatization and victimization, overindulgence, overprotection). Thus, the parental care that a child experiences has a substantial impact on the potential development of early maladaptive schemas. Negative parenting can range from unconscious neglect to overt abuse. Previous research supports the theoretical concept that there is a clear and close relationship between adverse childhood experiences and the development of early maladaptive schemas. Maternal mental health problems have been proven to be a factor that has strengthened the link between a mother’s history of negative childhood experiences and subsequent negative parenting. Consistent with the theoretical background, early maladaptive schemas are associated with a wide variety of mental health problems. Clear links have been found for EMSs and personality disorders, depression, eating disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. In light of these theoretical and clinical connections, we decided to summarize the available literature on the multigenerational transmission of early maladaptive schemas, which is also an introduction to our research project.
