| Abstract | Emotional events are followed by recurrent thoughts (i.e., mental rumination), and talking about the event (i.e., social sharing of emotion). Factors that can account for variations in these consequences were examined (i.e., emotional intensity, the Five Factor Model, and two factors of alexithymia). In two samples, participants reported the most negative emotional event of the last months and in one sample also the most positive one. Results indicated that emotional intensity predicted social sharing and mental rumination, while neuroticism was positively related to intrusive thoughts about negative events, and extraversion to mental rumination and social sharing about positive events. Difficulty describing feelings was negatively related to social sharing for negative events and reduced fantasy to mental rumination for positive events. |
