The present text carries out a characterization of the anomalous functioning of cognitive and emotional processes governed by the guidelines of a central dysexecutive control, modulated by persistent, negligent, and sometimes insensitive patterns to command lines of detection of external stimuli and required adjustment of focus according to changing keys of a demanding task-oriented context. Rumination as a metacognitive process, once anarchic, is in a domain-free domain capable of usurping memory and attentional resources by retrieving them to the self-referential self, making it a preferred focus of relevance. The ruminative process, slipping into the conscious network normally alert, is incessantly overwritten until it colonizes it, makes it neglect its tasks of observation and surveillance, to instead, abstract it from the outside world and overturn it in a kind of inflated self-absorption or hyper-augmented self-consciousness. The cognitive rumination is postulated as the polymorphic process that serves as a base substrate to explain the logic of appearance and maintenance of both obsessive-compulsive disorder and major depression, these diagnostic entities being the expression of the same polymorphic process. Turned to the future in the TOC and to the past in the TDM. Finally, a review is made of the evidence that the practice of mindfulness has reported in reducing rumination.

The current study involved 214 families (i.e., mother, father, and a college-age child), who were divided into high and low socioeconomic status groups on the basis of parental education and income. Dependent measures included 16 Likert-type items which provided a broad assessment of nuclear war-related thoughts, feelings, and attitudes. Results indicated that families high in socioeconomic status were more worried about nuclear war, more confident in their ability to help reduce the nuclear threat, and more supportive of proposals for arms reduction. However, groups did not differ on several other important measures (e.g., over-all life impact resulting from the nuclear threat), and the absolute levels of worry and cognitive rumination were relatively low.

The etiology and maintenance of insomnia are proposed to be associated with increased cognitive and physiological arousal caused by acute stressors and associated cognitive rumination. A core feature of such hyperarousal theory of insomnia involves increased sensory processing that interferes with the onset and maintenance of sleep. In this work, we collected structural magnetic resonance imaging data from 35 patients with primary insomnia and 35 normal sleepers and applied structural covariance analysis to investigate whether insomnia is associated with disruptions in structural brain networks centered at the sensory regions (primary visual, primary auditory, and olfactory cortex). As expected, insomnia patients showed increased structural covariance in cortical thickness between sensory and motor regions. We also observed trends of increased covariance between sensory regions and the default-mode network, and the salience network regions, and trends of decreased covariance between sensory regions and the frontoparietal working memory network regions, in insomnia patients. The observed changes in structural covariance tended to correlated with poor sleep quality. Our findings support previous functional neuroimaging studies and provide novel insights into variations in brain network configuration that may be involved in the pathophysiology of insomnia.

A hedonic theory of music and sadness is proposed. Some listeners report that nominally sad music genuinely makes them feel sad. It is suggested that, for these listeners, sad affect is evoked through a combination of empathetic responses to sad acoustic features, learned associations, and cognitive rumination. Among those listeners who report sad feelings, some report an accompanying positive affect, whereas others report the experience to be solely negative. Levels of the hormone prolactin increase when sad – producing a consoling psychological effect suggestive of a homeostatic function. It is proposed that variations in prolactin levels might account for the variability in individual hedonic responses. Specifically, it is conjectured that high prolactin concentrations are associated with pleasurable music-induced sadness, whereas low prolactin concentrations are associated with unpleasant music-induced sadness.

ResumenEl objetivo fue desarrollar y validar preliminarmente una guía de evaluación transdiagnóstica como herramienta para mejorar los procesos de evaluación en casos de ansiedad, estrés y depresión a partir de las variables perfeccionismo, rumiación cognitiva, afecto positivo y negativo, sensitividad ansiosa e intolerancia a la incertidumbre. Se efectuó un estudio de tipo cuantitativo empírico analítico de corte transversal instrumental, en el que a partir de las investigaciones consultadas se realizó el diseño de la guía clínica y una posterior indagación de sus propiedades mediante índices de confiabilidad por armonía interjueces y validez de contenido. Los participantes fueron dos jueces invitados conocedores de la materia expertos en evaluación transdiagnóstica. Se diseñó un instrumento de evaluación y calificación de la guía, conformada por un formato de evaluación en cual se plantearon una serie de ítems que permitían evaluar el cumplimiento de los objetivos, la claridad, rigurosidad científica y el procedimiento. En los resultados, se obtuvo un coeficiente de correlación intraclase de .62 considerado moderado. Se concluyó que la guía presenta validez de contenido preliminar y se considera pertinente para iniciar el proceso de pilotaje de tal forma que se pueda identificar la eficacia terapéutica de la misma.Palabras clave: Estrés, ansiedad, depresión, transdiagnóstico, evaluación, guía.Preliminary validation of a transdiagnostic guide for stress, anxiety and depression assessmentAbstractThe objective was to develop and validate a preliminary transdiagnostic guide as a tool to improve the assessment processes in cases of anxiety, stress and depression from the variables perfectionism, cognitive rumination, positive and negative affect, anxiety sensitivity and intolerance to uncertainty. A quantitative empirical analytical study was carried out with an instrumental cross sectional design. The clinical guide was designed based on transdiagnostic studies and assessed by interjudge agreement and validity of content indexes. Therefore, the participants were two expert judges in the field of transdiagnostic evaluation. The instrument for the evaluation and qualification of the guide was designed including items to evaluate the objectives fulfilment, the clarity, scientific rigor and the procedure. In the results, an intraclass correlation coefficient of .62 was considered moderate. It was concluded that the guide presents validity of preliminary content and is considered pertinent to start the piloting process in such a way that the therapeutic efficacy of the guide can be identified.Keywords: Stress, anxiety, depression, transdiagnostic, assessment, guide.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not only resulted in immeasurable life and property losses worldwide but has also impacted individuals’ development, especially teenagers. After the COVID-19 pandemic, individual rumination as an important cognitive process should be given more attention because of its close associations with physical and mental health. Previous studies have shown that creativity as an antecedent variable can predict people’s mental health or adaptation. However, few studies have focused on the relationship between creativity and individual cognitive rumination after traumatic events, and the mechanism underlying this relationship remains unclear. By using the Runco Ideational Behavior Scale (RIBS), the Event Related Rumination Inventory, and the Questionnaire of Adolescent Emotional Resilience, the current study explored the relationship between creativity and intrusive rumination among 1488 Chinese teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic and analyzed the moderating effect of emotional resilience on the relationship. The results showed that creativity, as assessed by the RIBS, was positively related to teenagers’ intrusive rumination, which implied that a higher level of creative performance could predict more intrusive rumination. Moreover, emotional resilience acted as a moderator in the relationship between creativity and intrusive rumination; the correlation was stronger when emotional resilience was low. These findings provide more evidence of the relationship between creativity and mental health and show the effect of this traumatic event on teenagers.
