Turkish Adaptation of the Short Schema Mode Inventory. Clin Psychol Psychother. 2020 Jan 30;: Authors: Aytaç M, Karaca BK, Karaosmanoğlu A Abstract The purpose of the current study is to present the psychometric properties of the Short Schema Mode Inventory (Lobbestael, Vreeswijk, Spinhoven, Schouten, & Arntz, 2010) in the Turkish culture. The study sample comprised 1287 participants, including both clinical and nonclinical participants. The age of the participants ranged between 18 and 48 years. The construct validity of the scale was tested using confirmatory factor analysis. The internal (Cronbach's alpha) and test-retest reliability coefficients were used to examine the reliability of the scale. Discriminant validity was investigated by comparing the nonclinical and clinical participants. Concurrent validity was tested via the Splitting Scale. The results of the study showed that the tested model had good data-model fit statistics. Additionally, the reliability analyses revealed that the scales had good internal and test-retest reliability coefficients. A significant association was found between the subscales of the Schema Mode Inventory. Furthermore, the scores of the clinical participants were significantly higher compared to the scores of the nonclinical participants for the maladaptive schema modes. Nonetheless, the participants in the nonclinical group had significantly higher levels of the healthy schema modes than i...
