关于共思与内化症状的关系已有研究，但很少有研究涉及潜在的不适应认知-情感过程，这些过程可能在维持这种关系中发挥重要作用。本研究在一个非临床年轻人的社区样本中，检验了Young的图式领域是否在共同思考和抑郁之间的关系中起中介作用。参与者完成了共同思考问卷、青年图式问卷-L3和Teate抑郁症问卷。对全样本和按性别分别进行相关分析和通径分析。过度警觉/抑制和其他方向性的图式域完全中介了共思与抑郁之间的关系。当分别对男性和女性进行分析时，只对女性进行调解。研究结果表明，在年轻女性中，与朋友共同思考可能与抑郁症状有关，因为它激活了特定的适应不良认知模式。更好地理解共同思考的内容和过程可能会对抑郁症的预防和治疗产生重要的影响。
Research on co-rumination has investigated its relationship with internalizing symptoms, but few studies have addressed underlying maladaptive cognitive-affective processes that may play an important role in the maintenance of this relation. This study examines if Young's schema domains mediate the relation between co-rumination and depression in a community sample of non-clinical young adults. Participants completed the Co-Rumination Questionnaire, Young Schema Questionnaire-L3, and Teate Depression Inventory. Correlations and path analysis were calculated for the full sample and separately by gender. The schema domains of Overvigilance/Inhibition and Other-Directedness fully mediated the relation between co-rumination and depression. When analyses were performed separately for males and females, mediation persisted only for females. Findings suggest that among young women, co-rumination with a friend may be associated with depressive symptoms because of its activation of specific maladaptive cognitive schemas. Better understanding of the content and processes underpinning co-rumination may have important implications for the prevention and treatment of depression.
