Objective: The objective of this research was to compare primary maladaptive schemas, personality traits, and emotional expression style in normal couples and couples experiencing emotional divorce.
Methods: The research method was descriptive-causal comparative. The statistical population of the study consisted of women referred to the Iranian Sexual Health Association Clinic in the year 2024. Based on the population, a sample of 120 individuals (60 women with emotional divorce and 60 normal women) were selected using convenience sampling. To collect data, Young’s Schema Questionnaire-Short Form (YSQ-SF) (1988), the Revised NEO Personality Inventory Short Form (NEO-PI-R-SF) by Costa & McCrae (1992), and King and Emmons’ Expressive Style Questionnaire (1990) were used. Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was employed for data analysis.
Results: The results showed a significant difference between primary maladaptive schemas, personality traits (except for the Neuroticism subscale), and emotional expression style in normal couples compared to couples experiencing emotional divorce.
Conclusions: It appears that attention to such variables plays an important role in primary and secondary prevention, and psychologists and counselors should pay attention to these variables in clinical and counseling settings.
