过度“分享”负性事件与性别、心理健康和关系质量:对共同反刍的元分析

A meta-analysis on Co-Rumination

共同反刍是二元关系中的新概念,指两个人过度讨论负性事件,关注消极情绪。共同反刍是否具有性别差异,对心理健康的影响是否具有两面性是目前研究热点。本研究对共同反刍的性别差异,与内化问题、关系质量的相关关系进行元分析,结果显示:(1)共同反刍的性别差异显著,女性相对于男性更加容易发生共同反刍(g=0.57,p<0.001);青少年时期性别分化最明显(g_(青少年)=0.75,g_(成年人)=0.32,p<0.001),而且共同反刍的对象不同,性别差异大小也不同。(2)共同反刍与内化问题呈显著弱相关(r=0.15,p<0.001),控制反刍后合并相关系数为r=0.08(p<0.001),研究设计(横断/纵向)、年龄、共同反刍对象不是显著的调节变量。(3)共同反刍与关系质量具有中等强度的相关(r=0.42,p<0.001)。未来应进行更多的纵向研究和实验探索共同反刍与内化问题、关系质量的因果关系及其机制,并且开发更多形式的测量工具。

Co-rumination refers to excessively discussing personal problems within a dyadic relationship. The meta-analysis examined how co-rumination was correlated with gender, mental health, and relationship quality. Our results revealed （1） Female co-ruminate more than male （g = 0.57, p 〈 0.001）, which appeared most significantly in adolescents, especially for friends; （2） co-rumination was significantly correlated with mental health （r = 0.15, p 〈 0.001）; and this effect is still signifieantafter controlling the rumination （partial correlation r = 0.08, p 〈 0.001）; （3） age, study design, and co-ruminator didn＇t moderate the aggregated correlation; （4） The aggregated correlation between co-rumination and relationship quality was also significant （r=- 0.42, p 〈 0.001）. Future research should further examine the causal relationship between co-rumination and mental health.
