dimension; 0.408 to 0.606 for emotional balance sub- dimension; 0.387 to 0.629 for the sub-dimension of responsibility; 0.339 to 0.698 for the aperture sub- dimension; 0.290 to 0.589 for the compatibility sub- dimension; for the hostility sub-dimension, it ranges from 0.466 to 0.690. While there were 50 items in the original scale, 10 items were removed from the scale in the validity, reliability and adaptation study because of their low factor loads. Thus, the scale was reduced to a total of 40 questions; It has five bipolar dimensions: extraversion-introversion, agreeableness-antagonism, responsibility, emotional instability (neuroticism), openness to experience and closedness to experience (Yöyen-Güneri, 2016). d) Data Collection The data collection study to be used for the research was carried out in December 2020. Socio- demographic information form, Young Schema Scale Short Form-3, Obsessive Beliefs Questionnaire and International Personality Inventory Short Form were printed on paper and Google form versions were created, selected by simple random method, and distributed to adults between the ages of 18-45 in order to apply the data collection tools to the participants. In about 2 months, 326 data were obtained. In order for the participants to give sincere and correct answers in the collection of data, it was not obligatory to give their identity information to the participants. All of the participants were informed about this study and the purpose of the research, and they were informed that the sincere and correct answers given in this research they participated in increased the validity and reliability of the research. e) Data Analysis After the data were transferred to the SPSS 25 program, the analyzes were started. The normality test, which is the first step of the analysis, was applied and when the skewness and kurtosis values of the variables were examined, it was seen that the relevant values were between -2 and +2. According to George and Mallery (2010), skewness and kurtosis values are between -2 and +2; According to Groeneveld and Meeden (1984), Moors (1986), Hopkins and Weeks (1990), and De Carlo (1997), it was determined that these values were in the range of -3 to +3 to be sufficient for a normal distribution.

There is a weak and positive correlation between the scores of Emotional Deprivation and Caring/Attention to control of thoughts (r=.230, p<0.01) .
