Young Schema Questionnaire—version three of the short form (YSQ-3SF) 6 was used to assess EMSs. It has 90 self-report items that measure 18 schemas categorized under five domains. Each of these items is rated on a 6-point Likert scale: 6 = describes me perfectly, 5 = mostly true of me, 4 = moderately true of me, 3 = slightly more true than untrue, 2 = mostly untrue of me, and 1 = completely untrue. The score on each schema varies from 5 to 30. YSQ-3SF has a Cronbach coefficient (α) of 0.84 in the Indian population 22 and strong construct validity.
