以前的研究发现，沉思涉及通常在经历失败期间出现的想法，并在经历失败后影响情绪。然而，关于沉思是如何直接影响超过这一点的接近行为的，我们知之甚少。因此，我们研究了沉思对失败后接近行为的影响。49名大学生被分配到抽象或具体的沉思加工模式或控制条件下。失败的经历是通过创造性思维任务诱导出来的，而沉思要么被操纵，要么不被操纵，这取决于团队。然后，学生们完成了一项类似于导致失败的创造性思维的任务。我们的分析表明，只有沉思的具体加工方式才能改善参与者的消极情绪，而沉思的操纵最终不会影响失败后的接近行为。
Previous studies have found that rumination involves thoughts that usually occur during and influence affect after experiencing failure. However, little is known about how rumination directly affects approach behavior beyond that point. Therefore, we investigated the effects of rumination on approach behavior after failure. Forty-nine university students were allocated to one of either an abstract or concrete processing mode of rumination or a control condition. A failure experience was induced through a creative thinking task, and rumination was either manipulated or not depending on the group. The students then performed a task that was similar to the failure-inducing creative thinking task. Our analysis revealed that only the concrete processing mode of rumination improved participants' negative affect and that the manipulation of rumination ultimately did not influence approach behavior after experiencing failure.
