本研究考察了参与者在担心和回忆过去创伤事件时经历思想和图像以及放松,焦虑和抑郁情绪的频率。在研究1中,未选择的参与者,和参与者选择的基础上,他们的GAD和过去的创伤状态在研究2中,从事5分钟的平衡担心和创伤回忆诱导。结果表明,虽然担心主要是经历了口头的想法,创伤回忆主要是经历了想象。此外,虽然担心和创伤回忆都与焦虑和抑郁情绪的增加有关,但在选定的样本中,担心与焦虑情绪特别相关,而创伤回忆与抑郁情绪特别相关。最后,对于既有广泛性焦虑症又有创伤症状的个体,在随后的创伤回忆任务中,先前的担忧与焦虑和抑郁情绪的降低有关。这些研究结果的理论和临床意义进行了讨论。
The present study examined the frequency with which participants experienced thoughts and images, as well as relaxed, anxious, and depressed affect, when worrying and when recalling past traumatic events. Unselected participants in Study 1, and participants selected on the basis of their GAD and past trauma status in Study 2, engaged in 5-minute counterbalanced worry and trauma recall inductions. Results indicated that while worry was experienced primarily as verbal thought, trauma recall was primarily experienced as imaginal. Furthermore, while both worry and trauma recall were associated with increased anxious and depressed affect, worry was particularly associated with anxious affect in the selected sample, and trauma recall was particularly associated with depressed affect in both unselected and selected samples. Finally, for individuals with both GAD and trauma symptoms, prior worrying was associated with decreased anxious and depressed affect during a subsequent trauma recall task. Theoretical and clinical implications of these findings are discussed.
