Co-rumination has been shown advantageous for friendship quality, but disadvantageous for mental health. Recently, two components have been distinguished, with co-brooding predicting increases in depressive symptoms and co-reflection decreases. The current study aimed to replicate these findings and investigated whether both components also show differential relations with friendship quality. Gender was investigated as a moderator. Path analyses were used on data of 313 adolescents aged 9-17 (50.5% girls). Co-brooding was related to more concurrent and prospective depressive symptoms in girls. Co-reflection predicted less concurrent and prospective depressive symptoms in girls and higher concurrent positive friendship quality for boys and girls. This study underscores the value of studying co-rumination components and suggests that boys and girls in this context differ in their pathways towards depression.
共沉思已被证明对友谊质量有好处，但对心理健康有坏处。最近，已经区分出两个组成部分，共沉思预测抑郁症状增加，而共反思则减少。本研究旨在复制这些发现，并研究这两个组成部分是否也与友谊质量有不同的关系。性别被作为一个调节变量进行了研究。对 313 名 9-17 岁的青少年（50.5%为女孩）的数据进行了路径分析。在女孩中，共沉思与更多的当前和预期的抑郁症状有关。在女孩中，共反思预测了更少的当前和预期的抑郁症状，而在男孩和女孩中，共反思预测了更高的当前积极的友谊质量。这项研究强调了研究共沉思成分的价值，并表明在这种情况下，男孩和女孩在走向抑郁的途径上存在差异。
