Abstract

The demanding parenting style is a dysfunctional parenting behaviour which involves strict rules, overprotectiveness, high standards, and little affection or emotional support. It is commonly found in the Asian community. Extensive studies have suggested that this parenting style would contribute to various severe impacts, which include the development of early maladaptive schemas (EMS). Interestingly, EMS has been found to represent itself in dreams through themes and symbols. With this, the current study employed qualitative interviews to analyse the relationship between EMS and dreams in eight Malaysian young adults who experienced demanding parenting styles. The current study found that a demanding parenting style is associated with six EMS, which are (1) abuse/mistrust, (2) failure, (3) pessimism/negativity, (4) unrelenting standard/hypercriticalness, (5) approval seeking/recognition seeking, and (6) social isolation/alienation. These EMS manifested themselves in dreams. Based on these findings, the use of EMS in dream analysis has the potential to be an effective mediator to understand and explore the individuals’ past history.
探索马来西亚儿童的梦想、早期适应不良模式和苛刻的养育方式之间的相互作用:定性研究
苛刻型教养方式是一种功能失调的教养行为,包括严格的规则、过度保护、高标准、很少关爱或情感支持。这种教养方式常见于亚裔社区。大量研究表明,这种养育方式会造成各种严重影响,其中包括早期适应不良图式(EMS)的形成。有趣的是,EMS 被发现会通过主题和符号在梦中表现出来。有鉴于此,本研究采用定性访谈的方式,分析了八名马来西亚年轻人的EMS与梦境之间的关系。本研究发现,苛刻的养育方式与六种EMS有关,分别是:(1) 虐待/不信任;(2) 失败;(3) 悲观/消极;(4) 无情的标准/过度挑剔;(5) 寻求认同/认可;(6) 社会孤立/疏远。这些 EMS 表现在梦境中。基于这些发现,在梦境分析中使用 EMS 有可能成为了解和探索个人过去历史的有效中介。
