Significats de critical rumination en anglès

Conclusions: Self- critical rumination in highly evaluative circumstances increased levels of shame and stress following perceived failure.

Aims: To experimentally investigate the effects of self- critical rumination on shame and stress following perceived failure.

Four groups, combining presence or absence of induced self- critical rumination with high or low performance expectations, were created.

Background: Self- critical rumination is the process of repetitively thinking about one's past instances of failure without actively problem-solving.

Shame has a central role within self- critical rumination and is accompanied by physiological changes that resemble stress responses.

Results: Participants experiencing self- critical rumination accompanied by high performance expectations reported higher levels of shame and stress, especially immediately following the impossible task.
