Evidence shows that people with high social anxiety levels ruminate about distressing social events, which contributes to the maintenance of social anxiety symptoms. The present study aimed to explore the role of shame in maintaining post-event rumination (PER) following a negative social event (an impromptu speech with negative feedback) in a student sample (N = 104). Participants reported negative rumination related to the event one day and one week after the speech. PER measured one day after the speech was not associated with social anxiety symptoms and state anxiety. One week later, participants with clinically relevant social anxiety symptoms experienced greater PER. State shame was the only significant predictor of PER in a regression equation that also included social anxiety symptoms, state anxiety and self-evaluation of performance. Possible explanations and implications are discussed in light of cognitive models of social anxiety.
有证据表明,社交焦虑水平高的人会反复思考令人痛苦的社交事件,这有助于社交焦虑症状的持续存在。本研究旨在探讨羞耻感在学生样本(N = 104)中经历负面社交事件(即得到负面反馈的即兴演讲)后维持事件后反刍思维(PER)方面的作用。参与者在演讲后的一天和一周报告了与该事件相关的负面反刍思维。演讲后一天测量的PER与社交焦虑症状和状态焦虑无关。一周后,有临床相关社交焦虑症状的参与者经历了更多的PER。在一个还包括社交焦虑症状、状态焦虑和表现自我评估的回归方程中,状态羞耻是PER的唯一显著预测因素。根据社交焦虑的认知模型讨论了可能的解释和意义。
