Abstract

"This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a therapeutic program based on Schema Therapy in reducing both maladaptive cognitive schemas and emotional deprivation among a sample of adolescents. The researcher adopted a quasi-experimental method, and the study sample consisted of 10 adolescents aged between 15 and 17 years, equally divided into two groups: an experimental group (5 individuals) and a control group (5 individuals). The therapeutic program was applied only to the experimental group during a specific intervention period. Two scales were used in the study: the short version of the Early Maladaptive Schemas Questionnaire (Young, 1999), and the Emotional Deprivation Scale by Salman (2002). Both instruments were administered to the two groups before the start of the program and after its completion. The results were analyzed using the independent samples t-test, the paired samples t-test, and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Additionally, effect size was calculated using Cohen’s d coefficient. The results revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups in the post-test, in favor of the experimental group, in both the intensity of early maladaptive schemas and the level of emotional deprivation, indicating the effectiveness of the therapeutic program. Furthermore, the comparison between the follow-up and post-test scores showed no statistically significant differences, which suggests the stability of the improvement after the program’s completion and reflects the long-term effectiveness of the intervention. No significant differences were observed between males and females within the experimental group, indicating a similar response across genders. The pre-test results showed a relatively high level of emotional deprivation and maladaptive cognitive schemas, highlighting the importance of therapeutic intervention. The study recommends incorporating schema-based therapy into psychological programs targeting adolescents, especially those suffering from emotional difficulties rooted in early deprivation experiences.
