The current study aimed to examine the mediating role of early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) in the associations between types of childhood maltreatment and adulthood proneness to shame and guilt. A path analysis was tested to examine the direct and indirect effects of neglect, sexual abuse, and punishment on shame and guilt via EMSs of incompetence, failure, social isolation, emotional inhibition, and unrelenting standards, over and above gender. Data were collected from 415 university students (73% female) aged 18–26. Participants completed self-report measures of childhood maltreatment, EMSs, and shame and guilt. Neglect was indirectly associated with increased shame-withdraw via incompetence. Sexual abuse was directly associated with decreased guilt-repair. Punishment was indirectly associated with increased guilt-repair via unrelenting standards. Results identified different developmental pathways of proneness to shame and guilt and supported the mediating role of EMSs of incompetence and unrelenting standards. Findings provide support for treatments of shame that target childhood neglect and maladaptive schemas.

当前的研究旨在检验早期不良适应图式（EMS）在儿童虐待类型与成年后易于羞耻和负罪感之间的关联中的中介作用。测试了路径分析，以检验除性别之外，通过无能力，失败，社会孤立，情感抑制和不屈不挠的标准EMS，忽视，性虐待和惩罚对耻辱和内的直接和间接影响。数据收集自年龄在18-26岁之间的415名大学生（73％的女性）。参加者完成了关于儿童虐待，EMS，羞愧和内gui感的自我报告。忽视与无能导致的羞耻感增加间接相关。性虐待与内修复率下降直接相关。通过不懈的努力，惩罚与内directly修复的增加间接相关。结果确定了容易产生羞耻和内感的不同发展途径，并支持了无能和不屈不挠的标准EMS的调解作用。研究结果为针对儿童期的忽视和适应不良方案的耻辱治疗提供了支持。
