Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between trait mindfulness( TM) and rumina-tion,as well as the mediating effects of experiential avoidance(EA) and thought suppression(TS) in under-graduates. Methods A sample of 1 219 undergraduates was recruited to complete Mindful Attention Aware-ness Scale,Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-Ⅱ,the White Bear Suppression Inventory and Rumination Response Style Questionnaire. Results (1) The significant positive correlations of each two different fac-tors were found among experiential avoidance (18. 020±7. 446),thought suppression (47. 769±10. 011) and rumination (47. 668±10. 497),and the correlation coefficients were 0. 466,0. 546 and 0. 525 respectively, all P<0. 01. TM (64. 977± 9. 623) was found to be significantly related with EA ( r=-0. 450),TS ( r=-0. 424) and rumination (r=-0. 527),all P<0. 01. (2) Partially mediating effect of EA ( effect value=-0. 132) and TS (effect value=-0. 073) were both found in TM and rumination,and the proportion of these two effects were 25. 0% and 13. 9%,respectively. The chain mediating effect of EA and TS (effect value=-0. 042 ) was also found between TM and rumination, whose indirect effect size was 8. 0%. Conclusion The relationship between TM and rumination in undergraduates can be mediated by EA and TS respectively,as well as their chain effect.
