Metacognition and Interpersonal Sensitivity: A Mediational of Rumination Study in Pakistani Sample
Journal Title: Qlantic Journal of Social Sciences - QJSS - Year 2023, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Metacognition is changing, interpreting, and managing one's ideas and thoughts. Rumination and depression are predicted by having specific problematic metacognitive beliefs. The focus of this study was to explore rumination's mediating role in the association between metacognition and interpersonal sensitivity. It included 304 participants selected through convenient sampling from different cities in Punjab, Pakistan. A total of 304 participants were from various schools, colleges, universities, training centers, and Academies of Malakwal, Sargodha, Lahore, Faisalabad, Phalia, and Islamabad. Three scales have been demonstrated to test the hypotheses: Metacognitive Self-Assessment Scale, Ruminative Response Scale, and Interpersonal Sensitivity Measure. Findings suggest a significant positive relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and metacognition. Rumination partially mediated the association between metacognition and interpersonal sensitivity. Various patterns of correlations that surfaced throughout this investigation are thought to have significant practical relevance. Future studies should go deeper into the connection between these constructs.
