“…However, some evidence suggests that the factor structure of the symptoms of depression and anxiety shifts with age (Lahey et al, 2004). For example, Cole, Truglio, and Peeke (1997) found support for a one factor model in childhood, but showed that separate factors emerged by early adolescence, suggesting they are best examined separately.In her recent follow-up study, Rose and colleagues (2007) 1995;Joiner & Metalsky, 1995;La Greca & Lopez, 1998; Starr & Davila, in press), and the same is likely to be true for co-rumination.

Co-rumination, or excessive discussion of problems within friendships, has been associated with internalizing symptoms and is especially prevalent among adolescent girls. Eighty-three early adolescent girls participated in a prospective study further examining this construct. Co-rumination was positively correlated with depressive symptoms and positive aspects of friendship, but did not predict longitudinal changes in depressive symptoms. Co-rumination was negatively related to social anxiety when controlling for depressive symptoms. Co-rumination correlated positively with romantic experiences, and the two interacted to predict longitudinal changes in depressive symptoms, implying that co-rumination may only be depressogenic under certain circumstances. Theoretical ramifications for the construct of co-rumination and interpersonal aspects of adolescent internalizing symptoms are discussed. Keywordsco-rumination; depression; social anxiety; adolescence; friendship; romantic involvement Co-rumination (Rose, 2002) is defined as excessive discussion of problems within friendships, including repeated conversations, conjecture about the causes, and heightened focus on negative emotions. The construct emerged in response to the apparent contradiction that although high quality friendships protect against internalizing symptoms (La Greca & Harrison, 2005), and girls tend to have closer and more disclosing friendships than boys (Furman & Buhrmester, 1992;McNelles & Connolly, 1999), girls remain more vulnerable to internalizing symptoms. Based on the association between rumination and depression (e.g., Nolen-Hoeksema, 1991;Nolen-Hoeksema, Parker, & Larson, 1994), Rose (2002) proposed that co-rumination plays a role in the development of depression and anxiety, and showed that co-rumination is positively correlated with internalizing symptoms in a sample of children and adolescents. Rose also showed that girls co-ruminate more than boys, and that this becomes more pronounced in adolescence, coinciding with the emergence of gender differences in depression (Nolen-Hoeksema & Girgus, 1994). Rose demonstrated that co-rumination is positively correlated with positive friendship quality and closeness, counterintuitively suggesting that certain aspects of closeness in peer relationships may leave youth at risk for internalizing symptoms. In a follow-up to her initial study, Rose and colleagues also showed that co-rumination prospectively predicted increases in depressive symptoms and anxiety (Rose, Carlson, & Waller, 2007).Portions of these results were presented at the 2007 annual meeting of the Society for Research on Child Development in Boston, MA.Publisher's Disclaimer: This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication.

“…Ratings are summed across the 4 items to yield scores ranging from 4 to 28, with higher scores indicating higher levels of reassurance seeking. The scale has been shown to have good criterion and construct validity, including discriminant validity from dependency and negative affectivity, and predictive validity of actual reassurance seeking behaviors (Joiner, 1994;Joiner et al, 1992Joiner et al, , 1993Joiner & Metalsky, 1995;Potthoff et al, 1995). In studies by Joiner and colleagues, internal consistency has ranged from .85 to .95.…”

Hammen (1991) provided evidence for a stress generation process in which individuals with a history of depression contributed to the occurrence of stressors, especially interpersonal and conflict events. However, few studies have examined the factors contributing to stress generation. This study examines aspects of individuals' interpersonal style, operationalized as attachment, dependency, and reassurance seeking, as predictors of conflict stress generation within romantic relationships. These effects were examined both prospectively over a 4-week period and cross-sectionally using a 14-day daily diary in a sample of female college students. Overall, there was significant evidence that interpersonal style contributes to the occurrence of interpersonal stressors. Specifically, anxious attachment and reassurance seeking prospectively predicted romantic conflict stress over a 4-week period, and a variety of interpersonal behaviors were associated with romantic conflict stressors on a daily basis. These results are interpreted in relation to previous literature, and limitations and directions for future research are discussed.

Depression Proneness and Reactions to a Depressive Stimulus

In the context of a project examining depression vulnerability and cigarette smoking, this study tested whether depression-vulnerable people differed from less vulnerable people in their reactions to a depressive stimulus. Regular smokers with a history of depression, but not currently depressed (n = 63) and never-depressed smokers (n = 64) listened to audiotapes of confederates reading depressive and non-depressive scripts, and reported their reactions. Neither history of depression nor selfreported depression proneness predicted reactions to depression. However, depression proneness positively correlated with beliefs about depression contagion. Likewise, stronger depression-related contagion beliefs and lower levels of empathic responding predicted behavioral rejection of the depressive stimulus.
