Abstract:
The present study aims to reveal the early, incompatible cognitive schemes prevailing
in a sample of divorced women's children. The sample was targeted at: 02 males, 02
females from adolescence, aged between 13 and 18 years, from the state of Ghardaia
- the municipalities of Ghardaia and Alateuf.
The prescriptive approach was used in this study. In order to verify the study's
hypotheses, standard tools were used: a half case-oriented interview, a measure of
Jeffrey Young's incompatible early knowledge schemes in his abbreviated version,
adapted by the researcher: Amina Ben Kouider on the Algerian environment, as well
as some statistical methods.
The study's findings were as follows:
There are early cognitive schemes of consensus prevailing among divorced women's
children:
Insufficient tenderness scheme /emotional deprivation scheme - self-sacrifice scheme
- excessive ideals/demanding ideals and excessive criticism - fusion relationship
scheme - control scheme/exaggerated rights - excessive impulse control scheme -
lack of self-control scheme.
All of the study's sub-hypotheses have also been achieved:
1. There is a difference in early cognitive non-consensual schemes attributable to the
gender variable.
2. There is a difference in early cognitive non-consensual schemes attributable to the
age variable.
3. There is a difference in early cognitive non-consensual schemes attributable to the
variable duration of divorce.
