Abstract
In recent years, rumination has been used in the etiology of depression and hopelessness as two proximal predictors of suicide ideation and behavior. But findings have been inconsistent with respect to the role of rumination subtypes in the prediction of suicidal ideation and it was supposed that reflection (focusing on the causes of depressed mood) was a more adaptive form than the brooding (focusing on the results of depressed mood). The present study, in the context of Ruminative Response style theory of depression, aimed at examining the role of rumination and its subtypes along with depression and hopelessness in the prediction of suicidal ideation. To this end, 177 undergraduate students with scores of 10 or higher in BDI-II were asked to complete rumination and hopelessness scales and questions about suicide ideation. Using logistic regression technique, it was shown that this model could predict 59.3% of the likelihood of the presence of suicidal ideation. This study was in line with earlier studies which have presumed reflection as the more adaptive subtype. Results also suggested that there was a greater correlation between rumination, its subtypes and suicidal ideation in females. This study also emphasizes the use of interventions targeting rumination in order to prevent suicidal ideations.

Abstract
Experience of anger is an indicator of the living conditions of patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain disorders. The aim of this study was to examine the mediating role of anger rumination on the relationship between anger and pain intensity in chronical musculoskeletal pain patients. For this purpose, a sample of 109 chronic musculoskeletal pain patients selected by convenience sampling method. Multidimensional pain questionnaire, multidimensional anger inventory and anger rumination scale used for collecting data. The present study is descriptive-correlation and analysis of data carried using simple correlation coefficient and regression analysis by Baron and Kenny method. Finding showed that anger and all of its dimensions except anger-eliciting situations and anger-out predicted pain intensity. Anger and all of its dimensions predicted anger rumination. In addition, results showed that anger rumination completely mediated the relationship between anger and pain intensity. Furthermore, the mediator role of anger rumination confirmed only for internal dimensions that had a significant relationship with the pain severity, such as anger arousal, hostile outlook and anger-in. However, this mediator role of anger was not confirmed for the dimensions with external nature (such as anger-eliciting situations and anger out), and there was not any significant correlations between pain severity and these dimensions. In general, anger rumination exacerbates the negative effects of anger on the pain severity in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain.

Abstract
This study examined the associations among the cognitive fusion, sense of coherence, rumination, and psychological distress, in cancer patients, as well as the mediating role of emotional dysregulation, in the relationship between this variables in cancer patients. Participants included 200 cancer patients who completed the DASS-21, Cognitive fusion questionnaire, sense of coherence scale, Rumination scale and the DERS-16. Structural equation modeling revealed was a direct associated between rumination with emotion dysregulation and emotion dysregulation with psychological distress. Also, the results indicated that no significant relationship between cognitive fusion and sense of coherence with psychological distress. Interaction-mediation analysis demonstrated that emotion dysregulation in the relationship between cognitive fusion and sense of coherence with psychological distress plays a full mediating role and in the relationship between rumination and psychological distress has minor mediating role. Therefore, considering the relationships between the studied variables and identifying the role of emotional dysregulation as a mediating variable in this regard, paying attention to the findings can be the first step in identifying the variables involved in psychological distress in cancer patients. This is followed by the design and application of evidence-based training and rehabilitation programs to reduce psychological pain and suffering in cancer patients, which can be considered by the mental health team of these patients.

Abstract
The aim of this study was the effectiveness of compassion-based therapy on reducing rumination, distress tolerance and sense of coherence in patients with MS. The design of this study was applied in terms of purpose and also a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group in terms of implementation. The statistical population of the study included all female patients referred to the Tehran MS Association in 2020. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and after the initial screening (completion of pre-test questionnaires), 30 female patients were selected through available sampling and randomly assigned to two 15-individual experimental and control groups. Data collection tools included Nima Ghorbani Rumination Scale (RRS) Questionnaire, Simmons and Gaher Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) Questionnaire and Antonovski Sense of Coherence (SOC). Data analysis was conducted using multivariate covariance analysis and SPSS 25 software. The results indicated that there is a significant difference in a specific level (P <0.001) between the experimental and control groups in terms of rumination, distress tolerance and sense of coherence. Compassion-based therapy is one of the therapies in the field of third wave psychology that reduces rumination and increases the distress tolerance and sense of coherence in patients with MS.
