Abstract

The present study examined the relationship between rumination and depressive symptoms and investigated the moderating role of cognitive flexibility in a non-clinical adult sample of 150 participants. The relations effect was statistically significant, suggesting that cognitive flexibility moderates the relationship between rumination and depression.
