述情障碍和反刍思维方式是抑郁症的两种典型倾向。述情障碍包括感觉识别困难（DIF）、感觉描述困难（DDF）和外部导向思维（EOT）。反刍是对自己状态的重复思考，根据所涉及的处理模式，它具有适应或不适应的后果。分析和适应性，当它是具体的经验（Watkins 2008）为了研究述情障碍和反刍在抑郁症中的联合作用，本研究调查了在控制抑郁症状之前和之后述情障碍和反刍的多个维度之间的相关性，目的是了解哪些述情障碍维度与抽象思维相关。分析性反刍，哪些与具体经验性反刍有关，哪些维度与反刍完全无关。对非临床样本进行抑郁症状述情障碍和反刍的自我报告测量（N = 174，M-年龄= 21 - 40）在控制抑郁症后，出现了两种互补模式，一种零关联DIF与抽象-分析性反刍EOT与具体经验性反刍呈负相关，而DDF与任何反刍成分之间均未发现相关性。讨论了与观察到的相关性相容的因果模型（C）2010 Elsevier Ltd版权所有
Alexithymia and ruminative thinking style are two dispositions typically associated with depression Alexithymia encompasses difficulties identifying feelings (DIF) difficulties describing feelings (DDF) and externally oriented thinking (EOT) Rumination consists of repetitive thinking about one s own state which has adaptive or maladaptive consequences depending on the processing mode involved This is maladaptive when the mode is abstract-analytic and adaptive when it is concrete-experiential (Watkins 2008) In order to Investigate the combined contribution of alexithymia and rumination in depression the present study investigated correlations between the multiple dimensions of alexithymia and rumination before and after controlling for depressive symptoms The aim was to see which alexithymia dimensions are associated with abstract-analytic rumination which ones with concrete-experiential rumination and which dimensions are not related to rumination at all Self-report measures of depressive symptoms alexithymia and rumination were administered to a non-clinical sample (N = 174 M-age = 21 40) After controlling for depression two complementary patterns emerged and a null association DIF positively correlated with abstract-analytic rumination EOT negatively correlated with concrete-experiential rumination whereas no association was found between DDF and any rumination component Causal models compatible with observed associations are discussed (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
