Early maladaptive schemas are mentally dysfunctional patterns that are formed since birth following the unfulfillment of human needs. The purpose of this research is to discover the relationship between the early maladaptive schemas of the fourth domain and their coping styles with direct and indirect requests. In general, ۱۸ schemas are formed as a result of five needs not being thoroughly fulfilled in humans. In this research, only the schemas of the fourth domain, spontaneity, and entertainment, are discussed and investigated. Each person copes with their schemas in three different ways. In this research, two coping styles, surrendering and compensation, are examined. To collect data, the request style questionnaire, designed by the researcher, the Young Parenting Inventory (YSQ), and the compensation questionnaires of Young (۲۰۰۳) were handed out online. The participants, ۷۳ males and ۱۶۹ females, were born from ۱۹۸۱ to ۱۹۹۶, held bachelor's or master's degrees, and lived with both their parents until the age of ۱۸. First, the request-style questionnaire was examined qualitatively according to the theory of Brown and Levinson (۱۹۸۷), and then the research data were analyzed using inferential statistics. According to the findings, the compensation style of domain four schemas has a direct relationship with the direct request, and the surrender style of domain four schemas has a direct relation with the indirect request. Also, gender does not affect direct or indirect request-making. Psychologists in the field of schema therapy can find out the existence of schemas of the fourth domain in their clients by using the direct and indirect request strategies. Also, according to the results of the present research, linguistics researchers can design more researches to find the relationship between mind and language.
