Notes. RumProb = Problem-focused rumination; RumEmo = Emotion-focused rumination; ERQ = Emotion Regulation Questionnaire; CRSQ = Children’s Response Styles Questionnaire; FFMQ = Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire; CDI = Children’s Depression Inventory; MASC = Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children. Positive parameter estimates indicate that higher scores on the predictor variable are associated with better outcome (i.e., reduction in rumination).
