“…This finding supports prior studies that found maladaptive outcomes in relation to utilization of these two constructs (Nolen-Hoeksema, 2008;Ottenbreit & Dobson, 2002;Segerstrom et al, 2000). Rumination and avoidance are symptoms associated with DSM-IV recognized disorders, namely depression, PTSD, and anxiety (Blalock & Joiner, 2000;Nolen-Hoeksema, 1991).…”

“…More specifically, it was asserted that there was contamination of the self-report measure, the Ruminative Responses Scale. Items on the scale were said to prime the participant with depressive content such as how often they think about how sad they feel, their shortcomings, failings, faults, and mistakes (Segerstrom, Tsao, Alden, & Craske, 2000;Stanton, Danoff-Burg, Cameron, & Ellis, 1994). Nolen-Hoeksema, Wisco, and Lyumbomirsky (2008) have since revised several aspects of the original theory, including the amendment that rumination predicts the onset, not the duration of depression, is predictive of more disorders than just depression, and that not all repetitive thinking is maladaptive.…”

Dissolution of a romantic relationship can adversely affect functioning among college students and represents one primary reason for seeking campus counseling. This study examined the associations among common coping strategies and distress following relationship dissolution. Avoidance and repetitive negative thinking (RNT) were significantly associated with distress, and gender was found to moderate the relationship between RNT and distress. Findings suggest that college counselors should consider emotional coping strategies following relationship dissolutions.

“…Worry and rumination are both repetitive, relatively uncontrollable thought processes with negative emotional valence [14, 15]. Both worry and rumination are present to a significant degree in anxiety disorders as well as associated with anxiety in nonclinical samples [16-18].…”

Getting “Stuck” in the Future or the Past: Relationships between Dimensions of Time Perspective, Executive Functions, and Repetitive Negative Thinking in Anxiety

et al. 2018

Background/Aim: Anxiety disorders are associated with impairments in several aspects of cognitive processing. In this study we investigated three such aspects, i.e., time perspective, repetitive negative thinking (worry and rumination), and executive functioning, in persons with anxiety disorders compared to healthy controls and examined the influence of negative past and negative future time perspective and executive functioning on worry and rumination. Method: Thirty-six psychiatric outpatients with anxiety disorders (mean age = 30.83, SD = 11.74; 30 females and 6 males) and 44 healthy controls (mean age = 28.89, SD = 9.54; 24 females and 20 males) completed inventories of time perspective and repetitive negative thinking, and tasks measuring executive functioning (shifting and inhibition). Results: The groups (patient vs. control) differed significantly on all time perspective dimensions (past, present, and future), with largest effect sizes observed for negative past and negative future. Regression analyses with executive functioning, negative past, and negative future time perspectives as predictors, and worry and rumination as outcomes, showed that negative past time perspective was the best predictor for rumination, whereas negative future time perspective more strongly predicted worry. Executive functioning was not a significant predictor of either worry or rumination. Conclusions: Individuals with anxiety disorders demonstrated systematic biases in all time perspective dimensions, particularly negative past and negative future time perspective, which was further related to worry and rumination. Thus, interventions targeting temporal focus may be one way of reducing repetitive negative thinking. A major limitation of this study was the use of a cross-section design.

“…To date, RNT has been primarily studied in disorder specific expressions (e.g., worry in generalized anxiety or rumination in depression). However, these content specific forms of RNT appear to share considerable variance and a number of process characteristics (Segerstrom, Tsao, Alden, & Craske, 2000;Watkins, Moulds, & Mackintosh, 2005), suggesting that it may be beneficial to study RNT from a content independent perspective. By focusing more on shared process characteristics and less on specific content, findings may generalize across a wider range of disorders.…”

“…However, various forms of RNT present transdiagnostically and may have more shared than unique characteristics (Watkins et al, 2005). For example, rumination and worry are highly correlated, load on a common higher-order factor, and are similarly related to anxiety and depression symptoms (Fresco, Frankel, Mennin, Turk, & Heimberg, 2002;Segerstrom et al, 2000;Siegle, Moore, & Thase, 2004). In addition, a recent meta-analysis found a moderate effect size for the correlation between rumination and symptoms of both anxiety and depression (Olatunji, Naragon-Gainey, & Wolitzky-Taylor, 2013).…”
