Özet:

 The aim of this study is to examine the mediating role of early maladaptive schemas in the relationship between anxious attachment orientation and emotion dysregulation difficulties. The sample of the study consisted of 501 university students determined by random sampling method. The research data were collected face-to-face by means of Experiences in Close RelationshipsRelationship Structures Questionnaire-Mother form, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-Brief Form, Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form-3, personal information form. Within the scope of descriptive analyses, mean, standard deviation, kurtosis, skewness and internal consistency coefficients were calculated. The causal relationships between the research variables were tested with two-step structural equation modelling. In addition, the mediation relationship between the variables was examined by bootstrapping. According to the research findings, the structural model in which early maladaptive schemas were partially mediated showed good fit χ2 df  3.186, p .001; CFI  .95; NFI  .93; TLI  .94; SRMR  .047; RMSEA  .066; AIC  296.579; ECVI  0.59. According to the findings obtained in the study, anxious attachment significantly predicts difficulty in emotion regulation H1 and maladaptive schemas H2, and maladaptive schemas significantly predict difficulty in emotion regulation H3. It was determined that early maladaptive schemas partially mediated the relationship between anxious attachment and emotion dysregulation H4. According to the results of the study, as anxious attachment orientation increases, early maladaptive schema scores increase, and individuals experience difficulty in emotion regulation with the effect of maladaptive schemas. Based on the results obtained in the study, suggestions for researchers and practitioners in the field of mental health were presented.

 Bu araştırmanın amacı kaygılı bağlanma yönelimi ve duygu düzenleme güçlüğü arasındaki ilişkide erken dönem uyum bozucu şemaların aracı rolünü incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini seçkisiz örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen 501 üniversite öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri Yakın İlişkilerde Yaşantılar Envanteri- İlişki Yapıları Anne formu, Duygu Düzenleme Güçlüğü Ölçeği-Kısa Form, Young Şema Ölçeği-Kısa Form 3, kişisel bilgi formu aracılığı ile yüzyüze toplanmıştır. Araştırmada betimsel analizler kapsamında ortalama, standart sapma, basıklık, çarpıklık ve iç tutarlık katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Araştırma değişkenleri arasındaki nedensel ilişkiler iki adımlı Yapısal eşitlik modellemesi ile test edilmiştir. Ayrıca değişkenler arasındaki aracılık ilişkisi bootstraping işlemi ile incelenmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre; erken dönem uyum bozucu şemaların kısmi aracı olduğu yapısal model iyi uyum göstermiştir χ2 df  3.186, p .001; CFI  .95; NFI  .93; TLI  .94; SRMR  .047; RMSEA  .066; AIC  296.579; ECVI  0.59. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgulara göre kaygılı bağlanma duygu düzenleme güçlüğünü H1 ve uyum bozucu şemaları H2 anlamlı düzeyde yordamakta, uyum bozucu şemaların duygu düzenleme güçlüğünü anlamlı düzeyde yordamaktadır H3. Kaygılı bağlanma ve duygu düzenleme güçlüğü arasındaki ilişkiye erken dönem uyum bozucu şemalar kısmi aracılık ettiği H4 tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre kaygılı bağlanma yönelimi arttıkça erken dönem uyum bozucu şema puanları artmakta, uyum bozucu şemaların etkisiyle bireyler duygu düzenleme güçlüğü yaşamaktadır. Araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlara dayanarak araştırmacılara ve ruh sağlığı alanındaki uygulamacılara yönelik öneriler sunulmuştur.
