Early maladaptive schemas (EMS), as lifelong psychological structures, tend to be associated with psychopathological symptomatology. Previous research has suggested that schemas act as psychological vulnerabilities to stressful life situations, such as the present worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, anxiety and psychological distress have been documented as two of the main psychological symptoms associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the associations between specific EMS and COVID-19 anxiety remain unexplored. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relationships between EMS, COVID-19 anxiety as well as other mental health variables such as psychological well-being, distress and life satisfaction.

早期适应不良模式和 COVID-19 焦虑：不信任和容易受到伤害和疾病的中介作用


早期适应不良图式（EMS）作为终生的心理结构，往往与精神病理学症状相关。先前的研究表明，图式是应对压力生活情况的心理脆弱性，例如当前全球范围内的 COVID-19 大流行。在这种情况下，焦虑和心理困扰已被记录为与 COVID-19 大流行相关的两种主要心理症状。然而，特定 EMS 与 COVID-19 焦虑之间的关联仍有待探索。因此，本研究旨在探讨 EMS、COVID-19 焦虑以及其他心理健康变量（如心理健康、痛苦和生活满意度）之间的关系。
