Furthermore, representations of the self that are internalized during childhood are centrally connected to psychological adjustment later in life; therefore, an understanding of these internalized representations may be important for developing targeted interventions and prevention strategies for those that have experienced maternal rejection.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the mediating role of early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) in the relationship between perceived maternal rejection during childhood and current psychological problems, such as anxiety and depression, in Turkish university students. EMSs were categorized according to 3 schema domains; impaired limits-exaggerated standards, disconnection-rejection, and impaired autonomy-other directedness. Materials and Methods: The study included 266 undergraduate university students (188 female and 78 male) aged 18-27 years. All the participants were administered the Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form 3 (YSQ-SF3), Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-T), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Parental Acceptance-Rejection Questionnaire (Adult PARQ: Mother). Results: Disconnection-rejection schema domain mediated the relationship between perceived maternal rejection during childhood and anxiety, but not depression. Furthermore, impaired autonomy- other directedness schema domain mediated the relationship between perceived maternal rejection, and both anxiety and depression. Conclusion: The present findings facilitate greater understanding of the possible mechanisms by which perceived maternal rejection during childhood might affect adult psychology. Furthermore, representations of the self that are internalized during childhood are centrally connected to psychological adjustment later in life; therefore, an understanding of these internalized representations may be important for developing targeted interventions and prevention strategies for those that have experienced maternal rejection.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı Türk örnekleminde çocukluk döneminde algılanan anne reddi ile depresyon ve kaygı gibi psikolojik sorunlar ara- sındaki ilişkide, erken dönem uyumsuz şemaların aracı rolünü araştır- maktır. Erken dönem uyumsuz şemalar; zedelenmiş özerklik öteki yö- nelimlilik, ayrılma-reddedilme, zedelenmiş sınırlar-abartılı standartlar olmak üzere üç şema alanı altında gruplandırılmıştır. Yöntem: Çalışmaya 188’i kız, 78’i erkek olmak üzere, toplam 266 üniversite öğrencisi katılmıştır. Katılımcıların yaşları 18 ile 27 arasında değişmektedir. Veri toplama aracı olarak demografik bilgi formu, Young Şema Ölçeği, Ebeveyn Kabul-Ret Ölçeği, Süreklilik Kaygı Ölçeği ve Beck Depresyon Envanteri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırma bulguları anne ret algısı ile kaygı arasındaki ilişkide ayrılma-reddedilme şema alanının aracı rol oynadığını göstermiştir. Öte yandan, zedelenmiş özerklik-öteki yönelimlilik şema alanının hem anne ret algısı ve depresyon arasındaki ilişkide hem de anne ret algısı ve kaygı arasındaki ilişkide aracı rol oynadığı görülmüştür. Sonuç: Bu araştırma, çocuklukta algılanan anne reddi ile yetişkinlikteki psikolojik sorunlar - özellikle kaygı- arasındaki ilişkide rol oynayan olası mekanizmalara işaret etmektedir. Bu mekanizmaların anlaşılması, ço- cukluk döneminde ret algılayan kişilere sunulacak psikolojik yardımlar ya da bu kişiler için geliştirilecek müdahale programları için oldukça önemlidir.
