dc.description.abstractRumination is a stable style of thinking marked by repetitive, recurrent, intrusive and uncontrollable thoughts. Rumination is established as a key variable in the development and maintenance of depressed mood and is related to many other psychological and behavioural phenomena. Until now, much of the research into rumination and personality has been limited to neuroticism and has focused on depressive rumination. This study expands on this research by using a more appropriate measure of rumination and assessing a broader range of psychopathology related personality factors to which it may be related. A sample of 167 undergraduate students completed the Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire and the MMPI-2-RF. Results show relationships consistent with theory and previous research, including rumination's relationship with negative mood states, internalizing disorders and interpersonal difficulties.
