The characteristics of social problem solving and rumination in formerly depressed people were investigated. Based on the results of a self-report measure, the participants were divided into a formerly depressed group that had experienced an episode that met the criteria for major depression (n=14), and a never-depressed group (n=92). The formerly depressed group had higher scores on the Rational Problem-Solving subscale of the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised Short Version and the Brooding and Reflective Pondering subscales of the Ruminative Responses Scale, after controlling for gender and the current depression level. It is possible that these factors increase the vulnerability to depression.

Previous studies have indicated that rumination is related to the difficulties in controlling interference during updating working memory. The current study examined the relationships between interferences during working memory updating, depressive rumination, and depressive symptoms by using the 2-back paradigm. The 2-back paradigm included two forms of interferences, n+1 lure in which a 3-back item corresponded to the currently presented item instead of the 2-back item and a n-1 lure in which a 1-back item corresponded to the currently presented item instead of the 2-back item. The result indicated that the high brooding group with high scores on the brooding subscale of the Ruminative Responses Scale showed greater interference scores in response to the n+1 lure than low brooders, which was not the case in response to the n-1 lure. These findings indicate that high brooders have difficulties in removing relevant representations that are no longer needed from working memory. This finding expands those of previous studies and also extends our understanding of the mechanisms of ruminations.

Previous studies have indicated that rumination is related to the difficulties in controlling interference during updating working memory. The current study examined the relationships between interferences during working memory updating, depressive rumination, and depressive symptoms by using the 2-back paradigm. The 2-back paradigm included two forms of interferences, <i>n</i>+1 lure in which a 3-back item corresponded to the currently presented item instead of the 2-back item and a <i>n</i>-1 lure in which a 1-back item corresponded to the currently presented item instead of the 2-back item. The result indicated that the high brooding group with high scores on the brooding subscale of the Ruminative Responses Scale showed greater interference scores in response to the <i>n</i>+1 lure than low brooders, which was not the case in response to the <i>n</i>-1 lure. These findings indicate that high brooders have difficulties in removing relevant representations that are no longer needed from working memory. This finding expands those of previous studies and also extends our understanding of the mechanisms of ruminations.
