Abstract: Objective To understand the current level of ruminating thinking in adolescents and analyze the influence of parental rearing patterns on ruminating thinking in adolescents. Methods From March to April 2022,302 middle school students from grades 7 to 9,10 to 12 in a middle school in Ning County,Gansu Province were selected using stratified sampling method. General information questionnaire,simplified parental rearing pattern scale,and Chinese version of ruminating thinking scale were used for investigation.Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of ruminating thinking in adolescents,and Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between parental rearing patterns and ruminating thinking in adolescents. Results The total score of ruminating thinking in 302 middle school students was (45.90±11.92)points,the score of symptom ruminating was (23.84±6.96)points,the score of obsessive thinking was (11.86±3.38)points,and the score of repetitive thinking was(10.20±3.03)points.Gender and long-term residence were independent factors affecting ruminating thinking in adolescents,accounting for 4.00% of the variance in ruminating thinking in adolescents.The dimension of parental emotional warmth in parental rearing patterns was negatively correlated with the total score of ruminating thinking in adolescents and the scores of each dimension of ruminating thinking(all P<0.05),while the dimension of parental rejection and overprotection was positively correlated with the total score of ruminating thinking in adolescents and the scores of each dimension of ruminating thinking(all P<0.05). Conclusion Ruminating thinking in adolescents is at a moderate level.Ruminating thinking in girls is more severe than that in boys,and ruminating thinking in rural adolescents is more severe than that in urban adolescents.In the process of intervention,attention should be paid to girls and rural adolescents,and parents should be encouraged to adopt emotional warmth in parenting.
