“…Nowadays, SFT is gaining popularity in older cohorts as well (Videler et al, 2012;Pauwels et al, 2013). Videler et al (2012) stressed the urgent need for more research on the assessment of early maladaptive schemas (EMS), one of the central constructs in SFT, at older age as part of developing an evidence-based treatment protocol for older adults.…”

“…Given the significant relationship between EMS and personality disorder symptoms, the presumed stability of EMS across the lifespan is not obvious (Pauwels, et al, 2013). Turning to the YSQL2 (Young and Brown, 1994), for example item 95 of the schema scale, Incompetence/Dependence, is formulated as follows: "I'm inept in most areas of life."…”

“…Concerning age differences, Nordahl, Holthe and Haugum (2005) reported that YSQL2 scale scores were positively associated with increasing age in outpatients. Similarly, Pauwels and colleagues (2013) showed that age was positively related to Emotional Deprivation and negatively related to Enmeshment in clinical inpatients. Additionally, when comparing younger, middle aged and older adults, Pauwels et al (2014) found that younger adults tend to report higher scores on Insufficient Self-Control compared to middle and older adults; whereas older adults tend to have lower scores on Enmeshment compared to middle/younger adults.…”

“…Also other authors (e.g., Calvete et al, 2005; Lodoño et al, 2012) confirmed this 15 factor structure in large student samples (N = 407 and N = 1392 respectively) by means of CFA. However, studies in which the 16 factor structure of the YSQ was investigated are scarce and were only performed on the long version of the YSQ (Rijkeboer & Van den Bergh, 2005; Pauwels et al, 2013). To our knowledge, only Hoffart and colleagues (2005) investigated the 15 factor structure and the 16 factor model of the YSQ-SF (in which all of the 9 items of the Social Undesirability scale were included), both in a clinical and non-clinical sample (N = 1037).…”

“…Dimensional personality trait models state that combinations of adaptive and maladaptive personality traits underlie personality disorders (Widiger et al 2009). Focusing on convergent validity of the YSQ, many studies investigated the association between YSQ scales and maladaptive personality traits/disorders in both non-clinical and clinical samples (e.g., Bach et al, 2016; Pauwels et al, 2013), while only a limited number of studies have investigated the link between the EMS scores and adaptive personality traits like the Big Five personality traits, one of the most known dimensional personality trait models (McCrae & Costa, 2003). When comparing the few studies investigating the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and the EMS scores within community samples, results showed positive associations between Neuroticism and most EMS.…”

The Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ, Young, 1994) was developed to assess Early Maladaptive Schemas (EMS), which account for the dysfunctional beliefs in individuals with personality disorders or maladaptive personality traits. This study aims to investigate the factor structure, the reliability and the validity of the original YSQ – Short Form (Young & Brown, 1998; YSQ-SF, 15 EMS) as well as an extension including 16 EMS, based on the 16 factor structure of the YSQL2 (Young & Brown, 1998) in a community sample. The sample consisted of 672 participants (51% females; Mage-total = 44.34; SDage-total = 16.24). Results show evidence for both the 15 and 16 factor solution of the YSQ-SF with good internal consistency coefficients for the different scales. Significant gender differences were observed for Self-Sacrifice (females higher) and Entitlement (men higher), along with different patterns of correlations between age and Insufficient Self-Control (r = –.19), Enmeshment (r = –0.16) and Self-Sacrifice (r = .13). Furthermore, Big Five personality traits were significantly associated with several schema scales. In sum, we can conclude that both the YSQ-SF15 and 16 are valid instruments to assess EMS among a Flemish community sample. However, given the unique additive value of the 16th EMS (Social Undesirability) in predicting lower scores on Extraversion and Openness, the use of the YSQ-SF16 could be favored.

This study investigates early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) in function of eating disorder (ED) subtypes (restrictive/bulimic) and the presence/absence of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Female inpatients (N = 491) completed the Young Schema Questionnaire and the Self-Injury Questionnaire. The influence of ED subtype and the presence/absence of NSSI and their interaction on the EMS were investigated by means of a MANCOVA. The results showed main effects of ED subtype and the presence of NSSI on EMS. Patients with bulimia scored significantly higher on insufficient self-control and emotional deprivation, which are more related to cluster B compared with restrictive patients, whereas restrictive patients scored significantly higher on social undesirability, failure to achieve, subjugation and unrelenting standards compared with patients with bulimia that are more related to cluster C. Patients with ED with NSSI reported significantly higher EMS levels compared with patients without NSSI, suggesting that they could be of particular interest to benefit from schema therapy.
