Abstract in brief

The study experimentally tested whether rumination, or repetitive negative thinking, contributes to the development and persistence of PTSD symptoms by using a stressful video and guiding participants through different thinking tasks.
Results showed that inducing rumination made participants recover less from sad mood compared to distraction or memory integration, and higher rumination during the task predicted more intrusive memories of the traumatic video.
Some evidence suggested that sex differences might influence how rumination and other thinking styles affect mood and memory, but overall, the findings support the idea that rumination plays a role in maintaining negative emotions after trauma.]
