Abstract

Background and purpose: <p>Although ru&shy;mination and schizotypal traits can be considered transdiagnostic phenomena and can occur within non-clinical population as well, a relatively small number of research has been carried out on the topic involving both patient and non clinical participants. The aim of this study is to examine the rela&shy;tionship between schizotypal traits and rumination using a transdiagnostic approach, involving participants living with psychotic disorders and sine morbo individuals.</p>.

Methods: <p>We recruited participants living with psychotic disorders (paranoid schizophrenia, hebephrenia, schizoaffective disorder, etc.) (n = 30) and controls who had not been diagnosed with any mental illnesses (n = 67). The connection between rumination and schizotypal traits was examined by self-report questionnaire method in a cross-sectional arrangement. The Oxford-Liverpool Inventory was used to measure schizotypal traits, and the Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire was used to determine the level of rumination.&nbsp;</p>.

Results: <p>Schizotypal symptoms (&beta; = 0.575; p &lt; 0.001), especially cognitive disorganization (&beta; = 0.459; p &lt; 0.001) and unusual experiences (&beta; = 0.221; p = 0.029) significantly explained the degree of rumination.&nbsp;</p>.

Conclusion: <p>Our results support the hypothesis that the association between rumination and schizotypic traits is due to decreased cognitive inhibitory functions.</p>.

Background and purpose: <p>Noha a rumin&aacute;ci&oacute; &eacute;s a szki&shy;zotip von&aacute;sok transzdiagnosztikus jelens&eacute;gnek tekinthetőek, &eacute;s eg&eacute;szs&eacute;ges popul&aacute;ci&oacute;n bel&uuml;l is előfordulhatnak, viszonylag kev&eacute;s kutat&aacute;s foglalkozott a t&eacute;ma vizsg&aacute;lat&aacute;val klinikai &eacute;s ment&aacute;lis betegs&eacute;ggel nem rendelkező csoport egy&uuml;ttes bevon&aacute;s&aacute;val. A jelen vizsg&aacute;lat c&eacute;lja, hogy ment&aacute;lis betegs&eacute;ggel &eacute;lő &eacute;s eg&eacute;szs&eacute;ges szem&eacute;lyeket &ouml;sszehasonlítva, transzdiagnosztikus megk&ouml;zelít&eacute;ssel vil&aacute;gítsa meg a szkizotip von&aacute;sok &eacute;s a rumin&aacute;ci&oacute; kapcsolat&aacute;t.</p>.

Methods: <p>Pszichotikus zavarral &eacute;lőket (paranoid szkizofr&eacute;nia, hebefr&eacute;nia, szkizo&shy;affektív zavar stb.) (n = 30), valamint ment&aacute;lis betegs&eacute;ggel nem diagnosztiz&aacute;lt kontrollszem&eacute;lyeket (n = 67) toboroztunk. A rumin&aacute;ci&oacute; &eacute;s a szkizotip von&aacute;sok &ouml;sszef&uuml;gg&eacute;seit &ouml;nbesz&aacute;mol&oacute;s k&eacute;rdőíves m&oacute;dszerrel vizsg&aacute;ltuk, keresztmetszeti elrendez&eacute;ssel. A szkizotip von&aacute;sok m&eacute;r&eacute;s&eacute;re az Oxford-Liverpool Inventory, a rumin&aacute;ci&oacute; szintj&eacute;nek meghat&aacute;roz&aacute;s&aacute;ra a Ruminatív V&aacute;laszstílus K&eacute;rdőív szolg&aacute;lt.</p>.

Results: <p>A vizsg&aacute;lat eredm&eacute;nyei szerint a szkizotip t&uuml;netek (&beta; = 0,575; p &lt; 0,001), azon bel&uuml;l is a kognitív dezorganiz&aacute;lts&aacute;g (&beta; = 0,459; p &lt; 0,001) &eacute;s a szokatlan &eacute;lm&eacute;nyek (&beta; &nbsp;= 0,221; p = 0,029) szignifik&aacute;nsan magyar&aacute;zt&aacute;k a rumin&aacute;ci&oacute; m&eacute;rt&eacute;k&eacute;t.&nbsp;</p>.

Conclusion: <p>Felvethető, hogy a ru&shy;mi&shy;n&aacute;ci&oacute; &eacute;s a szkizotip von&aacute;sok k&ouml;z&ouml;tti &ouml;sszef&uuml;gg&eacute;s h&aacute;tter&eacute;ben a kognitív g&aacute;tl&oacute; funkci&oacute;k cs&ouml;kkent műk&ouml;d&eacute;se &aacute;ll.</p>.
