三项研究探讨了焦虑性沉思的现象学及其对问题解决的影响。在第一项研究中，与分心相比，自我关注的沉思导致焦虑的参与者将自己最大的问题评为严重和无法解决的问题，并报告实际实施解决方案的可能性降低。研究2探索了这些罚款背后的机制。结果表明，焦虑性沉思思维的特点是集中在个人问题上，结合消极的语气，自我批评和自责的问题，以及减少自信，乐观和感知控制。最后，研究3揭示了反刍思维的负面偏见内容和解决问题的意愿降低之间的直接关系。这些研究结果的影响，自我为中心的反刍的后果进行了讨论。
The phenomenology of dysphoric rumination and its consequences for problem solving were explored in 3 studies. In Study 1, self-focused rumination, compared with distraction, led dysphoric participants to rate their own biggest problems as severe and unsolvable and to report a reduced likelihood of actually implementing their solutions. Clues into the mechanisms behind these finings were explored in Study 2. The results showed that dysphoric ruminative thought is characterized by a focus on personal problems combined with a negative tone, self-criticism, and self-blame for problems as well as reduced self-confidence,optimism, and perceived control. Finally, Study 3 revealed a direct relationship between the negatively biased content of ruminative thoughts and reduced willingness to solve one's problems. Implications of these findings for the consequences of self-focused rumination are discussed.
