According to empirical evidence, trait anger and emotion regulation strategies are associated with depression severity. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of trait anger and maladaptive emotion regulation strategies in explaining the variance of depressive symptoms severity.
Two hundred three participants diagnosed with major depressive disorder completed measures of depression, trait anger, depressive rumination, anger rumination and experiential avoidance. Path analysis using Mplus was employed for data analysis.
Trait anger and depressive rumination were significant predictors of the level of depressive symptomatology, while experiential avoidance and anger rumination did not predict the level of depressive symptoms severity.
Maladaptive emotion regulation strategies and trait anger seem to be associated with the level of depressive symptoms, and, as such, should also be investigated when working with depressive symptomatology.
根据实证证据，特质愤怒和情绪调节策略与抑郁严重程度相关。本研究的目的是调查特质愤怒和适应不良的情绪调节策略在解释抑郁症状严重程度差异方面的影响。
203名被诊断为重度抑郁症的参与者完成了抑郁、特质愤怒、抑郁沉思、愤怒沉思和经验回避的测量。使用Mplus进行路径分析以进行数据分析。
特质愤怒和抑郁沉思是抑郁症状水平的显著预测因素，而经验回避和愤怒沉思并不能预测抑郁症状的严重程度。
适应不良的情绪调节策略和特质愤怒似乎与抑郁症状水平相关，因此，在处理抑郁症状时也应进行调查。
