Objectives. The objectives of the study were to develop the Romanian version of the RRS-22 Ruminative Response Scale, thus initiating the process of validating it and exploring gender differences in ruminative-depressive responses with the help of this instrument. Material and methods. The scale was translated by two English translators. The two variants were compared in order to preserve the semantic content of the items, and the Romanian version of the scale was finalized. Subsequently, the scale was applied to N = 372 participants. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed, and internal consistency, convergent validity, and divergent validity were assessed. Gender differences in ruminative-depressive responses were explored. Results. The criteria required to validate the RRS instrument for the Romanian population have been satisfied. The scales associated with the three latent factors showed satisfactory internal consistency. Its use revealed significant differences between women and men, in favor of women, both in terms of total rumination scores and in terms of the reflection and brooding factor scores. There were also highly significant differences between women and men regarding ruminative themes assessed by the RRS-22. Conclusions. The Romanian version of the RRS-22 scale proved to have good psychometric properties. Its application confirmed the results of international studies carried out with the help of this instrument, according to which there are important differences between women and men in the way of coping with a negative mood, expressed through ruminative responses. The tendency to engage in rumination in response to distress is much more pronounced in women. Keywords: rumination, depression, gender, brooding, reflection.

Rumination is a vulnerability factor for the onset and maintenance of emotional distress. This study examined whether writing about life goals is associated with a decrease in ruminative thinking and a reduced cortisol awakening response. 68 healthy participants either wrote about their personal life goals or a control topic. Writing about life goals was associated with a modest decrease in ruminative thinking and a reduced cortisol awakening response at the post-intervention assessment. Results provide initial evidence that writing about life goals can be a helpful aid in decreasing rumination and physiological stress reactivity.

Background:Research using fMRI indicates that sustained limbic activity is linked to processing negative words and self-reported rumination in currently depressed individuals. It is unknown whether this is also present in remitted depressed individuals. We tested the hypothesis that a tendency to ruminate constitutes a trait for depression by using a standard covert fMRI emotional task face in previously and never depressed volunteers and postulated that high rumination scores would correlate with activity in brain areas previously associated with depression.Methods:37 controls (25 female) and 30 remitted depressed (RD, 22 female) were enrolled. Volunteers completed the Ruminative Responses Scale (RRS) and underwent fMRI scanning using a standard covert fMRI emotional task faces. Significance level was set at p < 0.05 (FWE).Results:With RRS score controlled for RD showed reduced subcortical and limbic activity to sad and fearful faces compared to controls. Correlations between RRS scores and neural activity in all participants and control participants alone were very limited. However, in RD, RRS score was negatively correlated with neural response to happy faces and positively correlated with neural response to sad and fearful faces, in cortical and limbic regions associated with depression (hippocampus, thalamus, caudate, insula and cingulate gyrus).Conclusion:The results suggest that reduced limbic activity is associated with remission, possibly as a maintenance mechanism. However, within the remitted group the more ruminative participants show greater response in these areas to negative stimuli, and less to positive stimuli. This could be a neurobiological marker for risk of relapse

Full textAbstract:
Rumination has been defined as a mode of responding to distress that involves passively focusing one's attention on symptoms of distress without taking action. This dysfunctional response style intensifies depressed mood, impairs interpersonal problem solving, and leads to more pessimistic future perspectives and less social support. As most of these results were obtained from younger people, it remains unclear how age affects ruminative thinking. Three hundred members of the general public ranging in age from 15 to 87 years were asked about their ruminative styles using the Response Styles Questionnaire (RSQ), depression and satisfaction with life. A Mokken Scale analysis confirmed the two-factor structure of the RSQ with brooding and reflective pondering as subcomponents of rumination. Older participants (63 years and older) reported less ruminative thinking than other age groups. Life satisfaction was associated with brooding and highest for the earlier and latest life stages investigated in this study.

Full textAbstract:
The main theme of this study is to investigate the possible relationship between the perception of organizational rumination and the concept of organizational commitment in the context of response styles theory. According to the reaction styles theory, the negative and repetitive thought process is called rumination; It is considered as a combination of sadness and depression. In the context of the theory, organizational rumination is defined as the individual's thinking over and over again about his/her emotional state and possible causes and consequences, without taking action to solve the problem. Corporate commitment, on the other hand, is the driving force behind corporate success, defined as the loyalty and loyalty of the employee to his institution. What makes it so important is the concept's close relationship with outcomes such as participation, performance, workforce turnover and organizational rumination. In this study, a field research was conducted with employees working as nurses in private hospitals operating in Kayseri; The relationship between employees' ruminative perceptions and their organizational commitment was examined in the context of corporate commitment and its sub-dimensions. In the research, it was determined that employees' ruminative perceptions negatively affected their corporate commitment, and the sub-dimensions of corporate commitment showed significant differences at the level of ruminative perception.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Self-regulatory executive function theory (Wells and Matthews, 1994; Wells, 2008) stresses the role of metacognitions in the development of emotional disorders. Within this metacognitive model, positive beliefs about ruminative thinking are thought to be a risk factor for engaging in rumination and subsequently for depression. However, most of the existing research relies on retrospective self-report trait measures. Aims: The aim of the present study was to examine the theory's predictions with an Ecological Momentary Assessment approach capturing rumination as it occurs in daily life. Method: Non-clinical participants (N = 93) were equipped with electronic diaries and completed four signal-contingent momentary self-reports per day for 4 weeks. A multilevel mediation model was computed to examine associations between positive beliefs about rumination and ruminative thinking and negative affect in daily life. Results: Positive beliefs about rumination were significantly associated with ruminative thinking as it occurs in daily life. We further found evidence for a negative association with positive affect that was completely mediated via ruminative thinking in daily life occurring in response to negative emotions. Conclusions: Our results add ecologically valid corroborating evidence for the metacognitive model of emotional disorders within the framework of self-regulatory executive function theory.

Full textAbstract:
Individual differences in vulnerability to depression are still underexplored in athletes. We tested the influence of different brooding and reflective rumination profiles (i.e., repetitive thought processes in response to low/depressed mood) on the odds of experiencing clinically relevant depressive symptoms in competitive athletes (N = 286). The Patient Health Questionnaire–9 and the Ruminative Responses Scale–short form were utilized to measure depression and rumination, respectively. Compared to athletes with a low brooding/reflection profile, athletes with a high brooding/reflection profile had significantly higher odds of experiencing clinical levels of depressive symptoms (OR = 13.40, 95% CI = 3.81–47.11). A high reflection/low brooding profile was not, however, related to increased odds of depressive symptoms. Future research could extend our findings by exploring determinants of ruminative tendencies, especially brooding, in athletes. Furthermore, psychological interventions targeting rumination could be examined as a potential prevention and treatment approach to tackling depressive symptoms in athletes.

BackgroundBoth past depressive episodes and the personality trait of depressive rumination are strong risk factors for future depression. Depression is associated with abnormal emotional processing, which may be a neurobiological marker for vulnerability to depression. A consistent picture has yet to emerge as to how a history of depression and the tendency to ruminate influence emotional processing. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between rumination, past depression and neural responses when processing face emotions.MethodThe Ruminative Responses Scale (RRS) was completed by 30 remitted depressives and 37 controls who underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning while viewing happy, sad, fearful and neutral faces.ResultsThe remitted depressives showed overall reductions in neural responses to negative emotions relative to the controls. However, in the remitted depressives, but not the controls, RRS scores were correlated with increased neural responses to negative emotions and decreased responses to happiness in limbic regions.ConclusionsAutomatic emotion processing biases and rumination seem to be correlated to aspects of vulnerability to depression. However, remission from depression may be maintained by a general suppression of limbic responsiveness to negative emotion.

Full textAbstract:
Research has demonstrated that a self-defeating humor style is related to indicators of psychopathology and interpersonal dysfunction, including depression, anxiety, loneliness, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness. The current study continued this investigation by examining how self-defeating humor is related to suicidal ideation and a ruminative response style. Analyses indicated that a self-defeating humor style was positively associated to rumination, brooding, reflection, and suicidal ideation. Results of bootstrapping analyses indicated that self-defeating humor mediated the relationship between rumination and suicidal ideation. This same effect was seen for both brooding and reflection individually. Results indicate that self-defeating humor may serve as an interpersonal means of ruminating as this humor style involves consistent focus on perceived flaws and weaknesses. The assessment of this humor style may provide additional information about the maintenance of suicidal thinking.

Full textAbstract:
Rumination, a maladaptive self-reflection, is a risk factor for depression, thought to be maintained by executive control deficits that impair ruminators’ ability to ignore emotional information. The current research examined whether training individuals to exert executive control when exposed to negative stimuli can ease rumination. A total of 85 participants were randomly assigned to one of two training conditions. In the experimental condition activation of executive control was followed predominantly by the presentation of negative pictures, whereas in the control condition it was followed predominantly by neutral pictures. As predicted, participants in the experimental group showed reduced state rumination compared with those in the control group. Furthermore, trait rumination, and particularly its maladaptive subtype brooding, was associated with increased sadness only among participants in the control group, and not in the experimental group. We argue that training individuals to exert executive control when processing negative stimuli can alleviate ruminative thinking and rumination-related sad mood.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract: Are depressive individuals more susceptible to anchoring effects? Does this susceptibility depend upon the affective nature of the event? Does individuals’ tendency to ruminative thinking have a role in these effects? We approach these questions by having participants (N=146) in a study perform an anchoring task (see Mussweiler & Strack, 2001) with neutral, negative, and depressive events, and subsequently indicate their level of depressive symptoms, via the Patient Health Questionnaire and levels of rumination via the Ruminative Response Scale. Results show anchoring effects to be stronger for neutral events than negative or depressive events. Both depression and rumination interfere positively with anchoring in such that the higher the levels of depression and rumination the higher the susceptibility to anchors. Both effects were shown to occur independently and not to be reliably moderated by the neutral, negative, or depressive nature of the events.

Full textAbstract:
The Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire (RTSQ) is a self-report measure that aims to capture rumination globally, unbiased by depressive symptoms. We explored its psychometric properties among university students (N = 1123), as the existing models about the factor structure of the RTSQ have been inconclusive. In a second study (N = 320) we tested its convergent validity compared to the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS) and its construct validity compared to the Zung Self-rating Depression Scale (ZSDS). The results of Study 1 suggest that the factor structure of the RTSQ is best described with a 19-item bifactor Exploratory Structural Equation Modelling (ESEM), where most of the variance is explained by the general factor. The model was found to be invariant across genders. The correlations in Study 2 demonstrated that the RTSQ is congruent with the RRS, and that rumination captured by the RTSQ is rather maladaptive, as it was more strongly associated with the brooding subscale of the RRS than with reflective pondering. Significant positive associations were found with depressive symptoms, reaffirming the validity of the RTSQ due to the well-known association between rumination and depressive symptoms. Our results support that RTSQ assesses rumination globally, and it is a valid measure of ruminative thinking style that is rather negatively valenced but does not solely focus on depressive mood and symptoms.

AbstractBackgroundEarly-life adversity (ELA) is a risk factor for internalizing psychopathology (IP). ELA is also linked to alterations in neural phenotypes of emotion processing and maladaptive emotion regulatory strategies, such as ruminative brooding, in adulthood. We therefore expected that ELA would predict cortical brain activation to emotional faces in transdiagnostic IP and in turn, mediate the extent of rumination amongst patients with IPs and ELA (IP + ELA).MethodOne hundred and thirty-two individuals, including 102 treatment-seeking adults with heterogeneous IPs and 30 healthy controls (HCs) performed an Emotional Face-Matching Task during functional magnetic resonance imaging. Whole-brain analyses compared HC (n = 30), IP (n = 52), and IP + ELA (n = 50) neural responses to emotional (angry, fearful, happy, and sad) faces v. shapes, controlling for depression and anxiety symptoms. Parameter estimates of activation were extracted for significant between-group differences and tested as a mediator of ruminative brooding in IP + ELA.ResultsIP + ELA demonstrated increased activation in the superior frontal gyrus and anterior cingulate cortex (fear), superior parietal lobule, precuneus, posterior cingulate, and inferior temporal gyrus (fear only), and cuneus (fear and angry). These regions were preferentially correlated with ruminative brooding in IP + ELA, many of which mediated the link between IP + ELA and ruminative brooding.ConclusionsResults provide evidence that ELA history amongst IP patients augments engagement of brain regions involved in emotion processing, above and beyond what is accounted for by current symptoms. Though longitudinal designs are needed, alterations in the neural correlates of maladaptive processing of socio-emotional information may be a common pathway by which ELA poses risk for psychopathology.

Full textAbstract:
Habitual thinking may underpin a heightened disposition to engage in rumination in response to negative mood, a widely held notion that has rarely been directly tested. The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether rumination is associated with habitual attributes and whether it is related to an imbalance in habit relative to goal-directed behavior control. University students (N=115) completed self-report questionnaires, a rumination induction paradigm and an outcome devaluation task that measures habitual vs goal-directed behavior control. Greater habitual characteristics of negative thinking (e.g., automaticity, lack of conscious awareness, control, and intent) were associated with ruminative brooding but not ruminative reflection and predicted more persistent dysphoric mood following rumination induction. Rumination was not, however, consistently associated with an imbalance in habit versus goal-directed behavior control. These findings indicate that depression vulnerability may be in the form of rumination being habitually triggered (without awareness or intent) with deleterious effects on mood. Although habitual, rumination may not be related to an imbalance in habit relative to goal-directed behavior control. These findings provide support for current theoretical accounts of rumination and set important boundary conditions in the search for specific factors that contribute to rumination as a habit.

Developmental antecedents of ruminative response style were examined in 137 college freshmen, who were followed prospectively for 2.5 years. Reports of mothers’ and fathers’ psychologically overcontrolling parenting as well as a history of childhood sexual (for women only) and emotional maltreatment were all related to ruminative response style. In addition, ruminative response style mediated the relationships between these developmental factors and the number of major depressive episodes experienced by participants during the follow-up period. Potential explanations and important implications of these findings are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Background. It is postulated that individuals who score high on neuroticism would ruminate when faced with stress. A ruminative response style to depression is associated with faulty attribution and higher dysfunctional beliefs, which in turn is associated with a higher level of depression and hopelessness. Distraction is associated with less severe depression. Evidence supporting these hypotheses mainly comes from a non-clinical population. Hence it is not clear if these theories apply to clinical depression.Method. One hundred and nine out-patients suffering from unipolar major depressive disorder were recruited to test these theories, using model-fitting analysis technique.Results. Certain rumination responses to depression were associated with higher levels of depression and hopelessness, faulty attribution and dysfunctional attitudes when gender and the level of depression were controlled. Principal component analysis of the Rumination Scale yielded four factors: ‘symptom-based rumination’, ‘isolation/introspection’, ‘self-blame’ and ‘analyse to understand’. Unlike the other factors, ‘analyse to understand’ did not correlate with the level of depression. Model fitting analysis, though not reflecting entirely the true model, captures most of the hypothesized relationships between important variables. Neuroticism was associated with stress. Rumination was associated with an increased level of dysfunctional beliefs and faulty attribution, which in turn was associated with increased severity of depression. Distraction, in contrast, was associated with lower levels of negative mood.Conclusion. The results of our study support the importance of teaching depressed patients to manage their depressive symptoms by avoiding rumination about their symptoms and engaging in distracting and pleasurable activities.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction Ruminations are a cognitive style of “thought recycling”, which involves passively and repeatedly focusing on disorder and distress symptoms, or their causes, without attempting to alleviate them. They are a significant indicator of cognitive vulnerability, predicting the emergence, maintenance, and recurrence of depressive symptoms.ObjectivesTo estimate the impact of the ruminative thought style on the maintenance and escalation of depressive mood.Methods The research sample consisted of 60 students between the ages of 19 and 30 (M = 23), divided into two experimental groups with 30 participants each. The participants took part in a 5-minute experiment that involved recalling an autobiographically sad event, assessing their mood on the Scale for Self-Assessment of Emotions (EAS) before and after the induction, and then splitting into two groups of 30 participants for random ruminating or distraction. The Beck Depression Inventory-II, the Ruminative Response Scale, the Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire, and the EAS were used as research instruments. The progressive group relaxation approach was used at the end of the experiment with all participants to promote relaxation and lessen the psychophysical tension brought on by the experimental induction (10 minutes total).ResultsThe experimental groups did not differ in mood intensity prior to the induction of sadness. Both experimental groups experienced significant impacts on depressed mood following the induction of sadness (F (1,58) =92.05, p<0.001): participants who ruminated demonstrated persistence in their negative mood, whereas participants who engaged in distractions demonstrated a decrease in their negative mood, even below the initial level (F (2,116) =12.69, p<0.001).Conclusions This result provides an additional experimental validation of the phenomenon of maintaining a depressive mood through ruminations. An essential psychotherapy goal should be the treatment (metacognitive therapy, rumination-focused CBT, mindfulness, cognitive bias correction, etc.) of such mechanisms, recognized as crucial for the maintenance of depression.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared

Abstract The present research was directed to study the mediating role of rumination between neuroticism and depression among the married and unmarried nurses of Multan. Data was taken from (n=150) nurses through a stratified proportional sampling method. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, Ruminative Response Scale and Big Five Inventory were utilized as an assessment measure in the present research. SPSS-21 version was used in the current research. Pearson product-moment correlation analysis revealed that rumination and neuroticism have a significant positive (P = .05) relationship with depression. However, hierarchical regression analysis by Baron and Kenny method shows that rumination shows a significant mediating (P = .05) role between neuroticism and depression. Consequences determined that a higher level of ruminating thoughts and neuroticism would lead to depression. The present study will help to understand the consequences of depression, especially among nurses. Existing policies and coping strategies could be inquired and could probably to improve to better help this population. Based on this study, it is not only particular for professionals or nurses to be aware of depression toward a better life in the Pakistani society but also to be educated on the culture itself and clinical area.

Despite large amount of empirical evidence in support of rumination as a risk factor of depression onset and chronification, theoretical foundations of ruminative thinking are still being discussed. This includes the issue of so-called constructive, or reflec¬tive, ruminations. Objective: This study gives a theoretical review of different views on rumination, empirically tests the idea of constructive and non-constructive rumi¬native thinking, and tests the validity of the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS, Rus sian version) [38]. Study design: We conducted a factor analysis of adapted RRS, as well as an intercorrelational analysis of this scale, Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-r), and the COPE Inventory; hypotheses were tested in a general population group (n=476) and two clinical groups (patients with depressive disorders, n=53, and patients with different diagnoses with recent suicide attempts, n=41). Results: Our theoretical review examines ruminative thinking as a dysfunctional coping strategy (E. Watkins) from the perspective of the structural-dynamic model of thinking in the course of creative problem-solving (V. Zaretsky, A. Kholmogorova). Rumination is conceptualized as getting stuck «in a loop» at certain levels of organization of cognitive processes, which substitutes motivation focus on actual problem solving. The resulting four-factor structure of RRS has good psychometric properties and strong correla¬tions with different psychopathological symptoms and dysfunctional coping strategies (namely, psychological and behavioral avoidance and venting negative emotions); these correlations are found in all resulting factors but one, which implies that it may have a special status. Conclusion: The Russian version of RRS shows good preliminary psychometric characteristics and is viable for practical purposes. The idea of construc¬tive rumination discussed in literature has not been confirmed empirically. ¬

Three studies investigated the role of ruminative tendencies in mediating the effects of multidimensional perfectionism (Hewitt & Flett, 1991) on psychological distress. Study 1 (Sample 1, N = 279; Sample 2, N = 224) and Study 2 (N = 205) found evidence, cross‐sectionally and prospectively, that brooding ruminative response style either fully or partially mediated the effects of socially prescribed and self‐oriented perfectionism on psychological distress, depression and hopelessness levels. In addition, Study 3 (N = 163) confirmed these mediation effects for socially prescribed perfectionism in relation to depression and hopelessness, 2 months later, after initial levels of distress were controlled. Overall, these findings provide evidence that brooding ruminative response style is an important mechanism that can explain, in part, the relationship between perfectionism and distress.

Research on depressogenic cognition has already documented negative cognitive styles and rumination with reference to depressive symptoms. The present study intended to explore the gender differences and interaction effect of rumination and negative cognitive style in predicting depression. The major hypotheses tested were (1) the interaction of negative cognitive styles and SRR predicts depression and (2) gender base differences would exist with reference to RRS and NCS. Study results revealed that both the study variable were significant predictors of depression. Similarly, the interaction effect NCS x RRS significantly predicted depression in a positive direction. Exploring the gender differences, it was found that females experienced more depressed feelings accompanied by a higher magnitude of ruminative response and negative cognitive style.

The qi stagnation constitution is associated with depression in traditional Chinese medicine. It is unclear how rumination and stressful life events affect the relationship between the qi stagnation constitution and depression. The Qi Stagnation Constitution Scale, Ruminative Response Scale, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Checklist were used to assess this association in 1200 female college students. The results revealed that the qi stagnation constitution was positively associated with depression. Furthermore, rumination was a partial mediator of the relationship between the qi stagnation constitution and depression. In addition, stressful life events moderated the direct effect and mediating effect of the qi stagnation constitution on depression. These findings indicate that rumination and stressful life events may affect the relationship between the qi stagnation constitution and depression in women.

Full textAbstract:
This study aimed to investigate the influence of negative life events on suicidal ideation in college students and the role of rumination. Using a cluster sampling method, 894 college students were asked to fill out the adolescent life event scale, ruminative response scale, and suicidal ideation scale. The study revealed the following: (1) negative life events, rumination, and suicidal ideation were significantly positively correlated with each other; (2) rumination played a full mediating role in the influence of negative life events on suicidal ideation; and (3) rumination also played a moderating role in the influence of negative life events on suicidal ideation. Under a high level of rumination, negative life events had a significant positive effect on suicidal ideation in college students; however, under a low level of rumination, negative life events did not have a significant effect on suicidal ideation. Rumination played mediating and moderating roles in the relationship between negative life events and suicidal ideation among college students.

Full textAbstract:
Brooding rumination is positively associated with symptoms of both depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, non-clinical cross-cultural research indicates that culture may influence these associations. This study aimed to examine the moderating effect of cultural group (Australian versus Malaysian) on the associations between brooding rumination and symptoms of depression and PTSD. European Australians (n = 109) and Malaysians of varying Asian heritages (n = 144) completed an online questionnaire containing the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, PTSD checklist for DSM-5 and the Ruminative Response Scale-Short Form. First, Malaysian participants had higher brooding rumination than Australian participants. Second, higher levels of brooding rumination were positively associated with depression and PTSD symptom severity. Third, contrary to our expectations, cultural group did not moderate the relationships between brooding rumination and symptoms of depression and PTSD. If replicable, these results suggest that existing assessment and treatment approaches that target brooding rumination may apply to Malaysian individuals with depression and PTSD.

Introduction Addressing depression requires a comprehensive approach. Investigating the relationship between ruminative thought and mindfulness in patients with major depressive disorder is crucial. Objective This study aimed to investigate the correlation between ruminative thoughts and mindfulness in patients with major depressive disorder in the community. Design A cross-sectional study Methodology Participants included 75 patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder in the maintenance phase of antidepressant therapy, purposively selected from a psychiatric hospital and community hospitals in a northeastern province of Thailand. Data were collected using questionnaires consisting of demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as assessments using Beck’s Depression Inventory, Ruminative Response Scale, and Philadelphia Mindfulness Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. Results The majority of participants were female, with an average age of 51.08 years (SD = 15.46). Depressive symptoms over the past two weeks were classified as minimal (33.3%), mild-moderate (25.3%), moderately severe (28.0%), and severe (13.3%). The results indicated a significant positive correlation between depression severity and overall ruminative thought and its dimensions (r = .562, p<.001). Additionally, there were significant positive correlations between depression severity and overall and all dimensions of ruminative thoughts (brooding, reflection, and depression-related items) (r = .441, .483, .592, p<.001, respectively). Furthermore, a significant negative correlation was found between ruminative thoughts and mindfulness (r = -.292, p = .012). However, no correlation was found between depression and mindfulness. Recommendation Patients with major depressive disorder undergoing antidepressant treatment typically have high ruminative thoughts. The results of this study provide basic information for predictive research that could lead to the development of community-based therapeutic programs for patients with depression, aimed at reducing ruminative thoughts and depression, resulting in preventing recurrent depression.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined whether the yips and lost move syndrome (LMS) are associated with higher levels of perfectionism, rumination, and reinvestment, and whether individuals experiencing these problems perceive them as highly stressful. Samples of yips (N=15) and LMS-affected (N=15) individuals, and two matched control groups, completed the Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (FMPS; Frost, Marten, Lahart & Rosenblate, 1990), the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS; Nolen-Hoeksema, 1991), the Reinvestment Scale (RS; Masters, Polman & Hammond, 1993), and the Impact of Event Scale (IES; Horowitz, Wilner & Alverez, 1979). Findings indicate higher scores in the yips and LMS groups for perfectionism, rumination, reinvestment, and IES compared to their respective control groups. The results suggest that rumination, reinvestment, and aspects of perfectionism increase vulnerability to the yips and LMS, and that both the yips and LMS are equally distressing.

Full textAbstract:
The present study investigated how humor styles moderate the associations between rumination and mental health (depressive symptoms, satisfaction with life, and positive mental health) in community residents. Participants ( N = 382) were assessed with the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS), Humor Styles Questionnaire (HSQ), Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS), and Positive Mental Health Scale (PMH-scale). Hayes’ PROCESS macro revealed that rumination had a direct effect on depressive symptoms and was moderated by affiliative humor, self-enhancing humor, and aggressive humor, respectively. The relationship between rumination and satisfaction with life was moderated by self-enhancing humor, aggressive humor, and self-defeating humor, respectively. Affiliative humor, self-enhancing humor, and aggressive humor were moderators in the relation between rumination and positive mental health. This study revealed that different humor styles have varying impacts between rumination and mental health. It is crucial for healthcare professionals to promote the importance of using adaptive humor styles to improve mental health.

Full textAbstract:
Research in developmental psychopathology and clinical staging models has increasingly sought to identify trans-diagnostic biomarkers or neurocognitive deficits that may play a role in the onset and trajectory of mental disorders and could represent modifiable treatment targets. Less attention has been directed at the potential role of cognitive-emotional regulation processes such as ruminative response style. Maladaptive rumination (toxic brooding) is a known mediator of the association between gender and internalizing disorders in adolescents and is increased in individuals with a history of early adversity. Furthermore, rumination shows moderate levels of genetic heritability and is linked to abnormalities in neural networks associated with emotional regulation and executive functioning. This review explores the potential role of rumination in exacerbating the symptoms of alcohol and substance misuse, and bipolar and psychotic disorders during the peak age range for illness onset. Evidence shows that rumination not only amplifies levels of distress and suicidal ideation, but also extends physiological responses to stress, which may partly explain the high prevalence of physical and mental co-morbidity in youth presenting to mental health services. In summary, the normative developmental trajectory of rumination and its role in the evolution of mental disorders and physical illness demonstrates that rumination presents a detectable, modifiable trans-diagnostic risk factor in youth.

Full textAbstract:
Although frequently used in the United States, the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS) has not been extensively studied in cross-cultural samples. The present study evaluated the factor structure of Treynor et al.’s 10-item version of the RRS in samples from Argentina ( N = 308) and the United States ( N = 371). In addition to testing measurement invariance between the countries, we evaluated whether the maladaptive implications of rumination were weaker for the Argentinians than for the U.S. group. Self-critical perfectionism was the criterion in those tests. Partial scalar invariance supported an 8-item version of the RRS. There were no differences in factor means or factor correlations in RRS dimensions between countries. Brooding and Reflection were positively correlated with self-critical perfectionism in both countries, with no significant differences in the sizes of these relations between the two samples. Results are discussed in terms of psychometric and cross-cultural implications for rumination.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Neuroticism is associated with inflated somatic symptom reporting. Worry and rumination are a cognitive concomitant of neuroticism and potentially mediate the neuroticism–somatic complaint relationship. Aims: The present study examined the degree to which worry and rumination mediated the relationship between neuroticism and somatic complaints. Method: A sample of 170 volunteers, recruited via convenience sampling, took part. Participants completed a series of self-report measures: the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Revised-Short Form, Penn State Worry Questionnaire, the Ruminative Response Scale and the Somatic Symptom Scale-8. Results: Analysis revealed significant positive correlations between neuroticism, rumination and worry. Neuroticism, rumination and worry also correlated positively with somatic complaints. Using structural equation modelling, a mediational model indicated that rumination fully mediated the relationship between neuroticism and somatic complaints. Conclusions: Findings are consistent with the symptom perception hypothesis and have implications for healthcare in terms of managing individuals who present with multiple somatic complaints. Future research would benefit from adopting a longitudinal approach to test how rumination interacts with neuroticism and somatic complaints over time.

Romantic relationship breakups among emerging adults are often described as unpleasant, painful, or stressful. During these stressful periods, emerging adults may engage in rumination that could prolong the stress, while also engaging in different strategies to cope with their condition. This study aims to determine the relationship between rumination and coping strategies used by emerging adults in dealing with breakups in romantic relationships. As many as 141 participants were recruited by using convenience sampling for this study. The measuring tools used are the Ruminative Response Scale RRS-10) and the Brief COPE which has been adapted to Bahasa Indonesia. The results showed that there was a significant positive relationship between rumination and problem-focused coping strategies and there was a positive relationship between rumination and dysfunctional coping strategies. It is also found that different types of rumination are correlated with different coping strategies in emerging adults who have gone through romantic breakups. This study has practical implications for the development of interventions to overcome relationship breakups.

Full textAbstract:
ObjectiveRumination is a negative coping strategy defined as repetitive and passive focusing on negative feelings such as depression. The Ruminative Response Scale (RRS) is a widely used instrument to measure rumination, but there is continuing argument about the construct validity of the RRS, because of probable overlap between the measurement of depression and that of rumination. The RRS-Revised, which removed 12 items of the RRS, is suggested as a more valid instrument for measuring rumination. Therefore, we translated RRS-R into Korean and explored the reliability, validity and factor structure in patients with major depressive disorders.MethodsSeventy-nine patients with major depressive disorder took the Korean version of RRS, RRS-R, State Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory and Penn State Worry Questionnaire. We performed exploratory factor analysis of RRS-R, and tested construct validity, internal reliability and test-retest reliability.ResultsThe internal and test-retest reliability of RRS-R was high. Factor analysis revealed that RRS-R is composed of two factors. “Brooding” factor explained 56.6% and “Reflection” factor explained 12.5%. RRS-R, especially “Brooding” factor, was highly correlated with other clinical symptoms such as depression, anxiety and worry.ConclusionsIn this study, we find out the RRS-R is more reliable and valid than the original RRS in Korean patients with depression because the RRS-R is free from the debate about the overlap of item with BDI. We also revealed that “Brooding” is highly correlated with depressive symptoms. RRS-R may be a useful instrument to explore the implication of “Brooding” in depression.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his/her declaration of competing interest.

Full textAbstract:
Metacognition is changing, interpreting, and managing one's ideas and thoughts. Rumination and depression are predicted by having specific problematic metacognitive beliefs. The focus of this study was to explore rumination's mediating role in the association between metacognition and interpersonal sensitivity. It included 304 participants selected through convenient sampling from different cities in Punjab, Pakistan. A total of 304 participants were from various schools, colleges, universities, training centers, and Academies of Malakwal, Sargodha, Lahore, Faisalabad, Phalia, and Islamabad. Three scales have been demonstrated to test the hypotheses: Metacognitive Self-Assessment Scale, Ruminative Response Scale, and Interpersonal Sensitivity Measure. Findings suggest a significant positive relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and metacognition. Rumination partially mediated the association between metacognition and interpersonal sensitivity. Various patterns of correlations that surfaced throughout this investigation are thought to have significant practical relevance. Future studies should go deeper into the connection between these constructs.

We investigated the concurrent relationships among life story variables (autobiographical reasoning), cognitive variables (negative explanatory style, cognitive reappraisal strategies, and rumination), and psychopathology (symptoms of depression and anxiety). Narratives of life story high, low, and turning points were collected from 164 young adults. Findings for negative self-event connections are reported here. Young adults who made some, as opposed to no, negative self-event connections reported greater symptoms of depression and anxiety and were more likely to report higher levels of ruminative thinking and less likely to use adaptive cognitive reappraisal strategies. Whether participants drew negative self-event connections predicted depression over and above the variance explained by negative explanatory style and cognitive reappraisal strategies and interacted with explanatory style to predict depression. In contrast, negative self-event connections did not incrementally predict anxiety over and above the cognitive variables. Results are discussed in terms of our current understanding of the factors that predict psychological distress.

Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of psychological flexibility and emotional flexibility in the relationship between metacognitions and emotional schemas with rumination. Methodology: This research was done in the form of structural equation modeling (SEM). Participants were 578 people from the non-clinical population residents of Tehran who were selected by voluntary sampling method. Then they completed the Ruminative Response Scale, Positive Beliefs about Rumination Scale, Negative Beliefs about Rumination Scale, Emotion Schemas Scale - Persian version, Acceptance and Action Questionnaire II, Emotional Flexibility Scale. Findings: The results of the model evaluation indicated that metacognitions, emotional schemas, psychological flexibility and emotional flexibility directly have a significant effect on rumination. The mediating role of psychological flexibility and emotional flexibility was significant in the relationship between metacognitions and rumination. The mediating role of emotional flexibility in the relationship between emotional schemas and rumination was not significant, but the mediating role of emotional flexibility in the relationship between metacognitions and rumination was significant. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, modifying metacognitions along with increasing psychological flexibility and emotional flexibility, as well as modifying maladaptive emotional schemas along with increasing psychological flexibility, can be effective in creating preventive strategies and rumination management.

Full textAbstract:
The Dual Vulnerability Model of seasonal depression posits that seasonal vegetative symptoms are due to a physiological vulnerability, but cognitive and mood symptoms are the result of negative appraisal of vegetative changes. In addition, rumination may be associated with stronger negative attitudes toward vegetative symptoms. This is the first study to examine implicit attitudes toward vegetative symptoms. We hypothesized that illness attitudes about fatigue moderate the relationship between the severity of vegetative symptoms and the severity of cognitive symptoms and that the illness attitudes are associated with rumination. This study also developed an implicit method to assess the appraisal of fatigue as indicating illness. Results supported both hypotheses. Illness attitudes toward fatigue moderated the relationship between vegetative symptoms and cognitive symptoms. Ruminative response style was positively associated with implicit illness attitudes towards fatigue. The study provides support for the role of negative appraisals of vegetative symptoms in the development of cognitive and mood seasonal depressive symptoms.

The aim of this study is to determine the social media addiction levels of university students and examine whether their social comparison orientations and ruminative responses significantly predict social media addiction. The study group consists of 261 university students. “Social Media Addiction Scale”, “Iowa-Netherlands Social Comparison Orientation Measure” and “Ruminative Response Scale, Short Form” were applied to the participants. Frequency, percentage and multiple regression analysis were used to analyse the obtained data. As a result of the study, it was found out that university students were less addicted on social media. As a result of the regression analysis, it was determined that obsessive thinking, deep thinking and social comparison had significant effects in predicting social media addiction. It was concluded that obsessive thinking and social comparison predicted positively, whereas deep thinking alone was not a significant predictor. The obtained findings were discussed in the context of the relevant literature and suggestions were made for further research.

The present study aimed to investigate the impact of self-generated thoughts (daydreaming) on symptoms of anxiety among university students. Furthermore, mediating role of rumination was also studied. A sample of 300 university students aged 18-28 years and with minimum education of 14 years was collected through purposive sampling technique from different universities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Self-report measures including Day-Dreaming Frequency Subscale of Imaginal Process Inventory (Singer & Antrobus, 1970) Ruminative Response Scale (Treynor, Gonzalez, & Nolen-Hoeksema, 2003), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (Beck, Epstein, Brown, & Steer, 1988) were administered to measure study variables. Results yielded self-generated thoughts as a significant positive predictor of anxiety symptoms, whereas rumination was found to significantly predict anxiety in positive direction. Moreover, rumination mediated the relationship between self-generated thoughts and symptoms of anxiety. Female students scored significantly higher on daydreaming, rumination, and anxiety symptoms as compared to male university students. This study will be helpful for mental health professionals to gain a better understanding that how daydreaming can have an impact on individual’s cognition and thus can raise more awareness about dangers associated with excessive daydreaming.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction Rumination is a transdiagnostic risk factor to psychopathology that has mostly been studied in relation to depression (Nolen-Hoeksema, 1991). However, rumination may also occur in response to positive events and emotions (Feldman et al., 2008), and may be a protective factor as it is associated with higher positive affect (Harding et al., 2017). Objectives We aimed to examine ruminative response to positive affect (RPA) in daily life and explore its relationship with daily positive and negative affect. We hypothesized that daily positive and negative affect would be associated with daily RPA even after controlling for trait-level RPA and depressive rumination. Methods We carried out a daily diary study with university students (n=178). After filling out the baseline survey assessing trait-level rumination, participants had to answer short surveys online about their daily affect and daily rumination every evening for 10 consecutive days. We analyzed our data with multilevel regression in R. Results In line with our expectations, daily RPA was significantly associated with daily positive (β=0.16) and negative affect (β=-0.07), while trait-level rumination scores were not significantly associated with daily positive and negative affect. The within-person relationship was stronger between RPA and positive affect (β=0.17) than the between-person relationship (β=0.09). Daily and trait-level rumination were weakly correlated (r=0.218-0.284). Conclusions Under ecologically valid conditions, we found that daily rumination was more important in daily affective experiences than trait-level rumination. Understanding whether one’s current affect is more strongly associated with trait-level, state-level or even contextual factors may yield better intervention strategies for affective disorders. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Thirty-six patients with major depression and 36 control participants were randomly allocated to either a rumination or distraction induction condition. Levels of trait rumination and distraction were measured at baseline, mood and problem-solving were measured before and after the inductions.Results. In terms of trait measures, depressed patients with higher levels of trait rumination reported poorer mood and gave less effective problem solutions than those who were less ruminative. Trait distraction was not associated with mood or problem-solving. In terms of induced responses, depressed patients who were made to ruminate experienced a deterioration in their mood and gave poorer problem solutions. For those receiving the distraction induction, mood improved in all patients and problem-solving improved in patients who were not naturally ruminating at a high level. Neither induction had an impact on mood or problem-solving in control participants.Conclusions. Treatment for depression associated with adverse life events may need to target rumination as well as problem-solving deficits if interventions are to be effective. The differential effects of self-applied versus experimentally induced distraction require further investigation. Future research will need to consider that high levels of trait rumination may interfere with the impact of experimental inductions.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between perfectionism and depression and social anxiety among social media users, with an emphasis on the mediating role of rumination. Methods and Materials: The population included social media users with a Bachelor's degree or higher in 2020. A total of 430 individuals (312 women, 118 men) were selected through voluntary sampling and responded to the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale of Tehran (Besharat, 2007), the Ruminative Response Style Scale (Nolen-Hoeksema & Morrow, 1991), the Beck Depression Inventory – Second Edition (Beck et al., 1996), and the Social Phobia Inventory (Connor et al., 2000). Findings: According to Pearson's correlation test results, there is a positive relationship between dimensions of perfectionism and rumination, and between rumination and both depression and social anxiety. There is a positive relationship between dimensions of perfectionism (self-oriented, other-oriented, and socially prescribed) and depression, and two dimensions of perfectionism (other-oriented and socially prescribed) have a positive relationship with social anxiety. Path analysis results showed that perfectionism explains 16% of the variance in rumination, and both perfectionism and rumination explain 43% of the variance in depression, and finally, perfectionism and rumination explain 31% of the variance in social anxiety. Conclusion: Therefore, rumination plays a mediating role in the relationship between dimensions of perfectionism and both depression and social anxiety.

Introduction. Mindfulness has been introduced in numerous healthcare programs and in work settings with promising results. Objective. To evaluate the impact of a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) on workers’ attention-related cognitive errors (ARCEs) and to study the mediating role of mindfulness, worry, and rumination in decreasing ARCEs. Method. The intervention followed the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program (MBSR) protocol, including weekly sessions and one full-day session. Participants were assessed through the scales: Attention Related Cognitive Errors Scale (ARCES), Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale (MASS), Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ), and Ruminative Response Scale Brooding domain (RRS-B) in the two conditions (pre-test – post-test). Multiple mediation analyses were then conducted to examine whether pre- to posttreatment changes in ARCES scores were mediated by changes in MASS, PSWQ, and RRS-B scores. Results. 74 adults (mean age: 42.25 years) participated, 76.3% of whom were women. The intervention resulted in significant changes in ARCES and MASS, PSWQ, and RRS-B scores. Mediation analyses showed that mindfulness, worry, and rumination mediated improvements in attention-related cognitive errors. Conclusion. Meditation increases mindfulness and reduces worry and rumination, thereby decreasing attention-related cognitive errors in workers.
