Using the self-regulatory executive function model as a basis, this study explored whether, among substance users, metacognitive beliefs and repetitive negative thinking were associated with impulsiveness.
A total of 100 substance users were recruited. Impulsiveness, metacognitive beliefs, rumination and worry were assessed. Correlation and hierarchal regression analyses were run.
Beliefs about the need to control thoughts, lower cognitive self-consciousness and brooding rumination were found to be independent predictors of the total score on impulsiveness in the hierarchical regression analysis. Further regression analyses indicated that motor impulsiveness was predicted by a combination of beliefs about the need to control thoughts and brooding rumination, while non-planning impulsiveness was predicted by beliefs about the need to control thoughts and lower cognitive self-consciousness.
Among substance users, higher impulsiveness is associated with the tendency to endorse beliefs about the need to control thoughts and brooding rumination. Among substance users, beliefs about the need to control thoughts and brooding rumination (and potentially cognitive self-consciousness) could be a suitable therapeutic targets to mitigate particularly motor impulsiveness and non-planning impulsiveness.
本研究以自我调节执行功能模型为基础，探讨物质使用者的元认知信念和重复性消极思维是否与冲动有关。
共招募了 100 名物质使用者。评估了冲动、元认知信念、反刍和担忧。进行了相关性和层次回归分析。
在层次回归分析中，发现控制思维的必要性信念、较低的认知自我意识和沉思式反刍与冲动的总分呈独立预测关系。进一步的回归分析表明，运动冲动性由控制思维的必要性信念和沉思式反刍的组合预测，而非计划性冲动性则由控制思维的必要性信念和较低的认知自我意识预测。
在物质使用者中，较高的冲动性与认同控制思维的必要性信念和沉思式反刍的倾向有关。在物质使用者中，控制思维的必要性信念和沉思式反刍（以及潜在的认知自我意识）可能是缓解尤其是运动冲动性和非计划性冲动性的合适的治疗靶点。
