Introduction: Engaging in behaviors that violate university rules and regulations significantly impacts students' lives. Therefore, investigating the underlying factors contributing to students' criminal behaviors has become a critical area of focus for researchers in the field of criminal psychology in recent years, resulting in numerous theories. The aim of the present study is to examine the role of schema modes in the intergenerational transmission of mothers' early maladaptive schemas to their daughters and the formation of criminal thinking patterns among female university students.
Methods: This study employed a descriptive correlational research design. The research population consisted of all female students enrolled at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad during the academic year 2021-2022, along with their mothers. A sample of 200 female students and their mothers was selected using a convenience sampling method. The research instruments included three questionnaires: The Early Maladaptive Schemas Questionnaire, the Schema Modes Questionnaire, and the Criminal Thinking Patterns Questionnaire. All three questionnaires were completed by the students, and the Early Maladaptive Schemas Questionnaire was also completed by their mothers. Data analysis was conducted using AMOS software to test the structural equation model.
Results: The results demonstrated a direct and significant impact of mothers' early maladaptive schemas on their daughters' schema modes (P<0.05, β=0.20), daughters' early maladaptive schemas (P<0.05, β=0.43), and criminal thinking patterns in daughters (P<0.05, β=0.45). Additionally, the mediating role of schema modes between mothers' early maladaptive schemas and daughters' early maladaptive schemas, as well as between mothers' early maladaptive schemas and daughters' criminal thinking patterns, was confirmed.
Conclusion: As the statistical results indicated, mothers and their early maladaptive schemas play a significant role in the formation of criminal thinking patterns that contribute to university misconduct. Therefore, to prevent student violations, educational planners should focus on developing specialized educational programs for mothers. |
