Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of early maladaptive schemas and cognitive fusion in predicting marital satisfaction of mothers with mentally retarded children. The research method is correlational. The study population included mothers with mentally retarded children in exceptional schools (girls and boys) in Mashhad in the second half of 1398 with 15041. 375 people were studied through Morgan table as a statistical sample. The sampling method was stratified-random. In this study, to collect the initial information to test the hypotheses, the standard questionnaire of Young's early maladaptive schemas, Guillanders cognitive fusion and Enrich marital satisfaction were used. In this study, in addition to using tables and graphs and central indicators and scattering of descriptive statistics to test the research hypotheses, Pearson correlation coefficient test and regression analysis using SPSS software were used. The results indicate that the findings indicate that the dimensions of the early maladaptive schemas of the variables of emotional deprivation (BETA = - 0.34), instability release (BETA = - 0.43), misbehavior distrust (45 / BETA = -), social isolation, alienation (BETA = 0.59), disability / shame (BETA = 0.25), trapped / unchanged self (BETA = 0.35), emotional retention (BETA = 0.13) -), entitlement / seniority (BETA = - 0.30) and self-control / inadequate self-discipline (BETA = - 0.19) predict the marital satisfaction variable of mothers with mentally retarded childrenDimensions of cognitive fusion (fusion and faulting) The fusion variable (BETA = -0.13) and the fault (BETA = - 0.42) predict the marital satisfaction variable of mothers with mentally retarded children. The results also indicate that If mothers with mentally retarded children have lower levels of early maladaptive schemas and cognitive fusion, their marital satisfaction will increase, and reducing early maladaptive schemas and cognitive fusion is very important to reduce marital differences
