We found significant statistical gender differences regarding the Unrelenting standards/ hypercriticalness (Us) schema and significant statistical differences regarding the Failure to achieve (Fa) schema according to the subjects’ diagnosis, the effect size of the result being above average. Finally, a significant positive correlation has been found between the subject’s age and the intensity of Punitiveness (Pu) schema, but the result had a below average effect size.
