“…Besides, the hope plays a role as predictive factor of happiness on the Turkish university students. As we mentioned before, previous research findings emphasized that high scores of hope is not only positively related to psychological health (Allott, Loganathan, & Fulford, 2002), psychological strength (Valle, Huebner, & Suldo, 2006), psychological well-being and self compassion (Raque-Bogdan, 2010), self-esteem (Ciarrochi, Heaven, & Davies, 2007), life satisfaction and optimism (Bailey, Eng, Frisch, & Snyder, 2007), but also negatively related to burnout (Pompili et al, 2010), anxiety (Cunningham, Gunn, Alladin, & Cawthorpe, 2008), worry (Shinn et al, 2009), depression (Arnau et al, 2007), stress (Landis et al, 2007), rumination (Michael & Snyder, 2005) and our study results are supported by all these findings. The current study conducted with the Turkish culture also supporting the previous studies.…”

a b S t r a c tThe aim of this research is to examine the relationships between subjective happiness and hope. The participants were 435 university students. In this study, the Integrative Hope Scale and the Subjective Happiness Scale were used. The relationships between were examined using correlation analysis and Structural Equation Model (SEM). In correlation analysis, trust and confidence, positive future orientation, and social relations and personal value sub factors of hope were found positively related to subjective happiness. On the other hand, lack of perspective sub factor of hope was found negatively correlated to subjective happiness. Structural Equation Model showed that subjective happiness was predicted positively by trust and confidence, positive future orientation, and social relations and personal value. However, subjective happiness was negatively explained by lack of perspective. According to standardized beta coefficients (β= 0.34), the most significant predictor of subjective happiness was trust and confidence. Results were discussed in the light of the related literature.

Los participantes fueron 435 estudiantes universitarios. En este estudio, se utilizaron la Escala de Esperanza Integrativa y la Escala de Felicidad Subjetiva. Las relaciones fueron examinadas usando análisis de correlación y modelo de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). En el análisis de correlación, la verdad y la confianza, la orientación positiva al futuro, y las relaciones sociales y los subfactores de valores personales de esperanza presentaron una relación positiva con la felicidad subjetiva. Por otro lado, la falta del subfactor de perspectiva de esperanza se encontró una correlación negativa con la felicidad subjetiva. El Modelo de Ecuaciones Estructurales mostró que la felicidad subjetiva se predijo positivamente por la verdad y la confianza, orientación positiva al futuro, y las relaciones sociales y el valor personal. Sin embargo, la felicidad subjetiva se explicó negativamente por la falta de perspectiva. De acuerdo con los coeficientes beta estandarizados (β = 0.34), el predictor más importante de la felicidad subjetiva fue la verdad y la confianza. Los resultados se discuten a la luz de la literatura relacionada.

“…Cognitive processes, including mainly ruminations (but also reflexivity and intrusions), turned out to be positively correlated with posttraumatic growth in HIV patients who developed AIDS (Bower, Kemeny, Taylor, & Fahey, 1998), in individuals who experienced heart attacks (Gangstad, Norman, & Barton, 2009), spouses of individuals who had experienced heart attacks (Senol-Durak & Ayvasik, 2010), women suffering from cancer (Chan, Ho, Tedeschi, & Leung, 2011), individuals who had experienced different types of cancer (Morris & Shakespeare-Finch, 2011) and grieving individuals (Boyraz, Home, & Sayger, 2010). Moreover, a positive correlation between ruminations and posttraumatic growth was found in a group of students who had lost someone close (Michael & Snyder, 2005) and in a group who had experienced different kinds of traumatic events (Lindstrom, Cann, Calhoun, & Tedeschi, 2013;Stockton, Hunt, & Joseph, 2011).…”

Cognitive processes play a significant role in both the negative and positive consequences of traumatic experiences. The aim of this research was to investigate the role of rumination in the occurrence of positive effects, in the form of posttraumatic growth, of experienced traumatic events. participants and procedureData were collected from 227 subjects who had experienced traumatic events, including cancer patients (31.30%), women who had experienced domestic violence (39.20%), and medical rescue workers exposed to traumatic events at work (29.50%). The age of participants ranged from 19 to 67 years (M = 40.12, SD = 13.28). The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory was used to measure positive changes, and the Event Related Rumination Inventory was used to assess the two types of ruminations (intrusive and deliberate). resultsBoth types of ruminations (intrusive and deliberate) were positively correlated with the level of posttraumatic growth in the group of cancer patients, and deliberate ruminations were associated with posttraumatic growth in the group of women who had experienced domestic violence and in the medical rescue workers. The results of regression analysis confirmed a significant role of deliberate rumination. conclusionsThe study of ruminations allows us to better explain the mechanisms underlying the consequences of traumatic experiences.

“…On the other hand, some researchers describe rumination as cognitive focus on negative emotions [16,17]. In other words, rumination can be caused by the inability in managing emotions.…”

Background: Rumination is one of the extreme negative cognitions in patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). It is assumed that some cognitive problems such as attentional control can facilitate rumination and some internal capabilities such as resiliency can reduce engaging in these ruminations. Objectives: The present study investigated the relationship between rumination with attentional control and resiliency in patients with OCD. Patients and Methods: In this correlational study, 50 patients with OCD were selected through accessible purposive sampling. The data was obtained through ruminative response, Connor and Davidson resiliency, and scalability questionnaires and were analyzed using the Pearson correlation and multiple regression tests. Results:The results indicated a significant negative correlation (P = 0.001) between rumination and attentional control (r = 0.573) and resiliency (r = 0.579). Results of regression analysis indicated increased attentional control and resiliency can predict reduction of rumination (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Regarding that attentional control and resiliency are associated with rumination and can predict rumination in patients with obsession, nurturing resiliency traits and teaching techniques to improve attentional control can be effective in the control and prevention of rumination.
