Abstract

Previous research suggests that college students with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms are at risk for experiencing ruminative thinking. Although research has shown that stimulant medications reduce ADHD symptoms, no research has looked at whether stimulant medication moderates the association between ADHD symptoms and rumination. Given this gap in the literature, the current study examined whether stimulant medication status moderates the association between ADHD symptoms and rumination. Participants (N = 4,751) were undergraduate psychology students from six universities (70.0% female; Mage = 19.08; SDage = 1.36) who participated in a larger study. College students completed questionnaires related to ADHD symptoms and rumination and indicated whether they were currently taking a stimulant medication. Results of the moderation model indicated a significant main effect for ADHD inattentive symptoms (β = 5.20, p < .05, 95% CI [4.43, 5.98]) and a significant interaction effect between ADHD inattentive symptoms and stimulant medication in relation to rumination (β = -2.41, p < .05, 95% CI [-4.51, -.30]). Examination of conditional effects revealed significant simple slopes for students both on and off medication but a stronger association for those off (β = 5.20, p < .05, 95% CI [4.43, 5.98]) versus on (β = 2.80, p < .05, 95% CI [.78, 4.81]) stimulant medication. Stimulant medication status did not moderate the association between ADHD hyperactive/impulsive symptoms and rumination. Future research should continue to explore the potential benefits of stimulant medication for reducing the association between ADHD inattention symptoms and rumination.

兴奋剂是否能缓和注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)症状与反刍的关系?
先前的研究表明,有注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)症状的大学生有经历反刍思维的风险。尽管研究表明兴奋剂药物可以减轻ADHD症状,但没有研究关注兴奋剂药物是否会缓和ADHD症状和反刍之间的联系。考虑到文献上的这一空白,目前的研究调查了兴奋剂是否能调节多动症症状和反刍之间的联系。参与者(N = 4,751)是来自六所大学的心理学本科生(70.0%为女性;法师= 19.08;SDage = 1.36),他们参加了一项更大的研究。大学生完成了与多动症症状和反刍有关的问卷调查,并表明他们目前是否正在服用兴奋剂药物。调节模型结果显示ADHD注意力不集中症状的主效应显著(β = 5.20, p p p p
