Rumination is a factor in the development and maintenance of body dissatisfaction. However, no study has yet investigated the impact of the type of rumination on body image. The first aim of this study was to examine whether the induction of analytic-abstract vs. concrete-experiential rumination affects body dissatisfaction following an induction of negative body image. The second objective was to examine gender differences in these effects.
Following induction of negative body image, 102 university undergraduates were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions-distraction, concrete rumination or abstract rumination.
As expected, there were significant main effects of gender and condition, and a significant interaction between gender and condition on change in body dissatisfaction. In women abstract rumination predicted the highest increase in body dissatisfaction, whereas concrete rumination predicted the highest increase in body dissatisfaction in men.
Given that our sample consisted of undergraduate students, our findings cannot be generalized to clinical sample suffering from eating disorder.
The different types of rumination seem to impact differentially body dissatisfaction in men and women.
反刍思维是身体不满情绪产生和维持的一个因素。然而，尚无研究调查反刍思维类型对身体意象的影响。本研究的首要目的是检验诱导分析性-抽象性反刍思维与具体体验性反刍思维是否会在诱发负面身体意象后影响身体不满情绪。第二个目的是检验这些效应中的性别差异。
在诱发负面身体意象后，102名大学本科生被随机分配到三个实验条件之一——分心、具体反刍思维或抽象反刍思维。
正如预期的那样，性别和条件存在显著的主效应，并且性别与条件之间在身体不满情绪变化上存在显著交互作用。在女性中，抽象反刍思维预示着身体不满情绪的最大增幅，而在男性中，具体反刍思维预示着身体不满情绪的最大增幅。
鉴于我们的样本由本科生组成，我们的研究结果不能推广到患有饮食失调症的临床样本。
不同类型的反刍思维似乎对男性和女性的身体不满情绪有不同的影响。
