MORETTI, María Paula  y  CASARI, Leandro. Satisfaction and motivation of cosmetic surgery in women and the relation with early maladaptive schemas. Psicogente [online]. 2017, vol.20, n.38, pp.222-239. ISSN 0124-0137.  https://doi.org/10.17081/psico.20.38.2543.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Early Maladaptative Schemas (EMS) in women who have undergone cosmetic surgeries (CS) and to research if there was a relation to the satis faction with the CS, the motivation to undergo more surgeries and the variables related to cos metic surgery. A non-experimental, cross-sectional, descriptive correctional study was carried out. The deliberately selected sample was comprised of 67 women between 18 and 40 years old who had undergone, at least, one cosmetic surgery. Data was collected from the responses to Jeffrey Young's questionnaire entitled Early Maladaptive Schemas and an ad hoc survey. As a result, from the investigation, it was observed that the schema of Unrelenting Standards was found in more than 50 % of the sample, and meaningful correlations with the analyzed variables were found: motivation, satisfaction and surgical variables with EMS (quantity, age and age of the first one). The results are discussed in relation to the influence among the EMS and the cosmetic surgeries.
