“…Although previous research found that individuals who ruminate at high levels are more likely to engage in co-rumination with their best friend over time (Jose et al, 2012), it is possible that these findings were not replicated due to the design of the current study. Because Jose et al (2012) utilized a longitudinal design, it is reasonable to suggest that a one-shot design is not sufficient in capturing the temporal sequence of emotion regulation processes between rumination and corumination. It would be fruitful for future dyadic studies to employ a longitudinal design to examine the unfolding of this process over time.…”

“…shown that people who tend to ruminate are also more likely to co-ruminate with their friends (Jose, Wilkins, & Spendelow, 2012). Although rumination and co-rumination are very similar, scholars have examined rumination in comparison to co-rumination in order to substantiate that these two constructs are indeed different from one another (Calmes & Roberts, 2008;Stone et al, 2011;Jose et al, 2012).…”

“…Friendship dyads responded to a 9-item shortened version (see Appendix B, Jose et al, 2012) of the full Co-Rumination Questionnaire (CQ; Rose, 2002). The items assessed the extent to which the participants typically co-ruminate with each other as the instructions asked them to think about the way that they usually are with the friend that came with them to the lab.…”

Over the past decade, researchers have learned a great deal about the outcomes of corumination, or dyadic tendencies in which two members excessively discuss and revisit problems while focusing on negative feelings (Rose, 2002). Research indicates that corumination is linked to closer friendship quality in youths, but also greater emotional disturbance (e.g., depression and anxiety; Rose, 2002;Rose, Carlson & Waller, 2007). Surprisingly, little is known about the predictors of co-rumination. The current study addressed whether attachment, rumination, and trait depression are predictive of corumination. In addition, this research evaluated co-rumination in relation to interdependence theory by proposing that it is subjected to the impacts from both the individuals' and their friend's attachment representations, rumination, and trait depression. It was hypothesized that more anxiously attached, depressive, and ruminative individuals would engage in more co-rumination with a close friend. Furthermore, it was hypothesized that having a friend who is more anxious, more depressive, or more ruminative may drive an individual to engage in more co-rumination. Results revealed that an individual's attachment avoidance was significantly related to their own (actor effect) and their friend's (partner effect) co-rumination. Also, an individual's attachment anxiety was significantly related to their friend's (partner level) co-rumination. Interestingly, gender moderated the effect of attachment avoidance on co-rumination at the actor and partner levels and gender moderated the effect of attachment anxiety on corumination at the partner level. Furthermore, an interaction emerged between friendship duration and trait depression on co-rumination at the actor level. Considering the adjustment trade-offs of co-rumination, it is important to understand the predictors of corumination as well as the consequences of it in order to effectively apply intervention efforts. Thus, the findings from the current study have significant practical implications. Furthermore, evidence from this study advances previous research that has primarily gathered information from only one friend, despite the dyadic nature of the construct.

Introduction This study investigated a theoretically derived peer conversation style, problem anxiety talk, to examine the emotional regulation of anxiety in dyads as a possible mechanism of anxiety contagion that occurs between adolescent friends. Methods In Study 1, 376 late adolescents residing in the United States, ages 17–24 with 68% female, responded to measures of anxiety, worry, friendship quality, depression, co‐rumination, and a new measure of problem anxiety talk. In Study 2 problem anxiety talk, stress, anxiety and depression were evaluated in 481 late adolescents, ages 17–24 with 64% female. Results Once controlling for worry and co‐rumination, problem anxiety talk with a close friend predicted anxiety, stress and depression for both samples of late adolescents. Factor analysis in each sample supported problem anxiety talk as a single factor with high internal consistency. Conclusions Findings indicate that problem anxiety talk is a distinct construct representing interpersonal disclosures between friends involving threat perception, likelihood of negative events, and lack of coping skills; results also indicate that problem anxiety talk is associated with anxiety, stress, worry, and depression. Implications of problem anxiety talk in its potential role in the etiology and spread of anxiety are discussed.
