A correlational study was conducted, with a non-experimental cross-sectional design, the instruments used for data collection were the Young Schemes Questionnaire (Uruguayan version) and the Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11) all adapted to Ecuador's population deprived of liberty and a sociodemographic record, both were applied to 100 persons deprived of their liberty between the ages of 18 and 65 of the Sierra Centro Norte-Cotopaxi Social Rehabilitation Center. The values obtained through the Pearson Chi Square test showed that there is a significant relationship between early bad adaptive patterns and impulsivity, which confirms the study hypothesis. In addition, it was found that the predominant early bad adaptive schemes were first of all emotional deprivation with 18% of the total population, followed by the condemnation scheme with 15% and the negativism / pessimism scheme with 10%. With respect to impulsivity, 66% of the total population had an excessively controlled impulsivity level, while 41% had an unplanned impulsivity.
