Additionally, to examine which schema domains might predict relationship and partner-related OC symptoms. The study sample consists of 290 individuals between the ages of 18-58; who have an ongoing romantic relationship and do not have any psychological/psychiatric diagnosis during the data collection period. The model analysis results examining the factors related to the development and level of relationship-related OC symptoms showed that all schema domains (except for impaired limits) predicted increases in relationship-related OC symptoms through the mediation of intolerance of uncertainty. It was observed that the other-directedness schema domain did not directly affect relationship-related OC symptoms; only impaired autonomy, disconnection, and unrelenting standards schema domains had a direct effect on relationship-related OC symptoms. The model analysis results examining the factors related to the development and level of partner-related OC symptoms showed that impaired autonomy, disconnection, and unrelenting standards schema domains predicted increases in partner-related OC symptoms through the mediation of perfectionism. It was seen that other-directedness and impaired limits schema domains did not directly affect partner-related OC symptoms; only impaired autonomy, disconnection, and unrelenting standards schema domains had a direct effect on partner-related OC symptoms. The findings of the current study were discussed in light of the relevant literature.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessRelationship and partner-related obsessive-compulsive symptomsEarly maladaptive schema domainsPerfectionismIntolerance of uncertaintyArticle422219037190530007806820000012-s2.0-85127941093
