The objective of the present study was to construct and validate a short-form version Self-Compassion Scale (SCS). Two Dutch samples were used cross-validate factorial structure 12-item Scale-Short Form (SCS-SF). SCS-SF then validated in third, English sample. demonstrated adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha ≥ 0.86 all samples) near-perfect correlation with long form SCS (r 0.97 samples). Confirmatory factor analysis on supported same six-factor as found form, well single...
Reduced autobiographical memory (AM) specificity is a known vulnerability factor for depression.AM was investigated as predictor of depression with the Autobiographical Memory Test (J.M. G. Williams & K. Broadbent, 1986).When baseline scores were partialed, reduced AM to negative cue words predicted higher levels at 7-month follow-up.Once rumination taken into account by means Rumination on Sadness Scale (M.Conway, P. A. R. Csank, S
Overgeneral memory (OGM) has been proposed as a vulnerability factor for depression (Williams et al., Citation2007) or depressive reactivity to stressful life-events (e.g., Gibbs & Rude, Citation2004). Traditionally, cue word procedure known the Autobiographical Memory Test (AMT; Williams Broadbent, Citation1986) is used assess OGM. Although frequently and validly in clinical populations, there evidence suggesting that AMT insufficiently sensitive measure OGM non-clinical groups. Study 1...
Past research has convincingly shown that a ruminative response style to negative affect (NA) predicts concurrent and prospective levels of depressive symptoms. Recent findings suggest how people respond positive (PA) might also be involved in the development symptoms, although this heretofore not been tested prospectively. Participants from two non-clinical samples (total N=487) completed measures styles NA (negative rumination) PA (positive rumination mood dampening) at assessments...
Abstract Clinical studies have shown that rumination functions as a mediator between overgeneral memory—the tendency to retrieve autobiographical memories in non-specific format—and depression. Recently, has been dismantled into two distinct subcomponents: reflection, which is more adaptive, and brooding, maladaptive. In the present study we examined differential relationships of these subcomponents with memory specificity their mediational role for relationship reduced depression...
We examined the mediating role of rumination in relationship between emotional abuse and depression, focusing on two subtypes rumination: reflection versus brooding.Students (n=101) completed Emotional Abuse subscale Childhood Trauma Questionnaire; Ruminative Response Scale; Beck Depression Inventory.Rumination was found to mediate childhood depressive symptoms. Further analyses showed that this only case for brooding but not reflective subtype rumination.Results further evidence as a...
The ability to regulate emotions is a critical component of healthy emotional functioning. Therefore, it important determine factors that contribute the efficacy emotion regulation. present article examined whether update information in working memory predictor rumination and reappraisal on affective experience both at trait level (Study 1) daily life 2). In studies, results revealed relationship between use high arousal negative was moderated by updating ability. Specifically, associated...
Research has shown that how well people can differentiate between different emotional states is an essential requirement for adaptive emotion regulation. People with low levels of differentiation tend to be more vulnerable develop disorders. Although we know quite a lot about the correlates differentiation, research on factors or interventions which could improve skills scarce. Here, hypothesize, and study empirically, whether mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) may impact negative positive...
