OBJECTIVES: To investigate the relationship between the rumination patterns, depression and suicidal ideation and the mediating role of depression in the relationship between brooding rumination and suicidal ideation among adults. STUDY DESIGN: Cross sectional study PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY: Rawalpindi and Islamabad sample were collected during the month of March 2014. METHODOLOGY: Sample comprised of 200 individuals. Age ranged between 21 to 70 years (M = 40.60, SD = 14.20), with almost equal participation of both, males and females. Urdu translated versions of Siddiqui Shah Depression Scale (SSDS); Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSSI); and Rumination Response Scales (RRS) were used to measure the Depression, Suicidal Ideation and Rumination respectively. RESULTS: Results showed that there was a significant positive relationship between depression and suicidal ideation (r = .38, P < .01), brooding rumination was significantly positively associated with depression (r =.50, P <.01) and with suicidal ideation (r =.22, P <.01) and reflective rumination was also significantly positively associated with depression(r =.41, P <.01) but not with suicidal ideation (r = .08, p=ns). Depression fully mediates the relationship between brooding rumination (β = .36, p<.01) and suicidal ideation. CONCLUSION: Brooding rumination invokes the depression that subsequently leads to suicidal ideation. Quite contrary, reflective rumination buffers the effect of depression and suicidal ideation. Moreover, these results may guide appropriate psychosocial interventions.
