[The mediating role of early maladaptive schemas in the relationship between maternal rejection and psychological problems].

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.
