Sentences with phrase «emotional unclarity»

Of special interest in the present study, low dispositional mindfulness has been associated with hyperactivating processes such as rumination (Raes & Williams, 2010) and negative emotion (Brown & Ryan, 2003), and with deactivating processes such as thought suppression (Feldman, Hayes, Kumar, Greeson, & Laurenceau, 2007) and emotional unclarity (Baer, Smith, & Allen, 2004).

Furthermore, compared to a wait - list control group (N = 22) assessed, like the intervention group, at three time points (pre-intervention, one week post intervention, and five weeks post-intervention), the intervention group (N = 17) showed significant improvements in rumination, negative emotion (marginally significant), emotional suppression, emotional unclarity, emotion regulation, and mindfulness.

The model that best accounted for this relation included the mediating variables of rumination, negative emotion, and emotional unclarity (these authors did not include emotional suppression or thought suppression as possible mediators).

Although these authors did not assess thought or emotion suppression as possible mediating variables, given the significant correlation between these variables and emotional unclarity, we suspect that they may very well play mediating roles as well.
