Abstract

Our research examined whether parental incarceration increased risk of early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) in young adults. Young adults with a history of parental incarceration showed significantly higher EMS scores overall and in 8 of 13 EMSs. These results accentuate the need to develop support for children affected by parental incarceration.
