abstract="The current study aimed to investigate whether the correlation between rumination and suicidal ideation is moderated by the presence of hope and optimism. It was hypothesized that both hope and optimism would moderate (weaken) the relationship between rumination and suicidal ideation. Two hundred and ninety-eight participants completed self-report measures of hope, optimism, rumination (brooding and reflection), and depression. <br><br>RESULTS demonstrated that both hope and optimism weakened the relationship between rumination and suicidal ideation, as well as the relationships between both subscales of rumination and suicidal thinking. These results were found when controlling for symptoms of depression. <br><br>RESULTS suggest that a ruminative thinking style may be most harmful when an absence of hope or optimism is also present. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
