A community sample of 405 adolescents were given the Youth Self-Report Form (YSR) and the Children's Negative Cognitive Errors Questionnaire (CNCEQ). Both regression and group comparison analyses, using the full sample and a subset of extreme scorers, respectively, indicated that internalising problems were specifically associated with the various forms of cognitive distortions assessed, namely, selective abstraction, personalising, overgeneralisation, and catastrophising. Furthermore, they displayed a curvilinear relationship; as the severity of internalising problems increased, the magnitude of cognitive distortions grew positively at a quadratic rate, displaying a U-shaped upward curve. However, in view of the potential measurement bias of CNCEQ toward internalising problems, the conclusion was qualified. Although our results found some specific event/schema-linked cognitive distortions that distinguished internalising from externalising problems, we could not conclude that the latter were free from any other event/schemalinked cognitive distortions that the CNCEQ might have failed to elicit.
对405名青少年的社区样本进行了青少年自我报告表（YSR）和儿童消极认知错误问卷（CNCEQ）的测试。分别使用全样本和极端得分者子集进行的回归分析和组间比较分析均表明，内化问题与所评估的各种认知扭曲形式存在特定关联，即选择性抽象、个人化、过度概括和灾难化。此外，它们呈现出一种曲线关系；随着内化问题严重程度的增加，认知扭曲的程度以二次方速率呈正向增长，呈现出U形上升曲线。然而，鉴于CNCEQ对内化问题存在潜在的测量偏差，该结论具有一定局限性。尽管我们的研究结果发现了一些将内化问题与外化问题区分开来的、与特定事件/图式相关的认知扭曲，但我们不能得出结论说，外化问题不存在CNCEQ可能未引发的任何其他与事件/图式相关的认知扭曲。
