Abstract

Many researches have focused on the relationship between childhood experiences and individuals' self-control, adaptation and problem behaviors at later ages. In this sense, memories of early ages have a data bank feature for the psychological problems observed in adult life. The aim of this research is to reveal relationship between incompatible cognitive schemes with happiness and peace memories in childhood and psychological symptoms, and also it is aimed to exhibit the predictive power along with determining which scheme field-aspect and which psychological symptom has higher relation with the happy and peace memories of the childhood period. Relational screening model was used in the research. For this purpose, childhood happiness and peace memories scale, schema scale and short symptom screening inventory were applied to 468 university students. At the end of the study, it was found that hypovigilance-inhibited, impaired autonomy, disconnection-rejection schema fields were the strongest and significant predictors of CHPM. Besides, negative and significant correlation was observed between negative self, one of psychological symptoms, and somatization symptoms. It explains 46 percent of total variance related to CHPM scores with the five symptoms. It has been suggested that research findings could be used to prepare and develop parenting education programs and to increase the effectiveness of preventive and developer guidance services in schools.
