Independent content predictors of constructs relevant for mental health. Positive βs are characterized by thoughts that are more concrete, more personally significant, more future oriented and more positive (see scales in Figure 1). (A) Personal Significance and Valence contributed a significant amount of variance toward explaining Depression/Negative Affect. (B) Level of Construal was the only dimension that contributed a significant amount of variance toward predicting individual differences in Rumination. (C) Level of Construal and Personal Significance contributed a significant amount of variance toward predicting Mindfulness, with a considerable additional contribution of Valence (β = 0.25, p = 0.054). *p ≤ 0.05.
