YSQ-GeMS: Development of a Short Form of the Young Schema Questionnaire for Geriatric Mental Health Care Using Item Response Theory.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Schema therapy is effective for older adults with personality disorders, but the Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ) may be too lengthy for use in geriatric mental health care. This study evaluated the construct validity of the YSQ-L2 in adults aged 35-97 years receiving residential or outpatient geriatric, psychiatric or medical care and developed a shorter form for this population. Data from 214 participants from Dutch nursing homes and outpatient services were analysed using Item Response Theory across 16 YSQ-L2 subscales. Each subscale was reduced to five items based on discrimination, difficulty, Differential Item Functioning for cognitive status and face validity. Most items showed adequate discrimination and coverage, whereas the Enmeshment scale had limited sensitivity and the Social Undesirability scale was excluded. The resulting 75-item YSQ-GeMS showed strong concordance with the original, providing a psychometrically robust and efficient tool for schema assessment in geriatric mental health care.
