Ruminative Thoughts: Advances in Social Cognition, Volume IX

By Robert S. Wyer Jr.

Book Overview

This ninth volume in this series focuses on this type of cognitive activity and examines both its determinants and consequences. The lead article, by Leonard Martin and Abraham Tesser, develops a theoretical formulation of ruminative thinking that conceptualizes rumination as a class of conscious thought with a common instrumental theme that recurs in the absence of immediate environmental demands.
