This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the subtypes of Early Life Stressors and the Early Maladaptive Schemas in adults. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire and the Young Schema Questionnaire (short form) were used in a non-clinical sample of 200 people in which half (n = 100) had a previous history of Early Life Stressors. The data was processed in the IBM SPSS Statistics - version 22 software, using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlations coefficients and comparison of means by using the Independent Samples t-Test. Correlation analysis revealed that each type of abuse and neglect was related in different ways to the Early Maladaptive Schemes, which suggests that the differential influence of each type should be studied. Among all the subtypes of Early Stressful Events, the emotional abuse was the one that stood out, showing a higher prevalence and correlations with more schemes than other form of maltreatment, such as physical and sexual abuse.
