CRISTIAN, Zanon  e  HUTZ, Claudio Simon. Thinking styles, personality and subjective well-being: advances and polemics. Aletheia [online]. 2010, n.32, pp.80-91. ISSN 1413-0394.

The aim of this paper is to present possible relationships of rumination and reflection with gender, Neuroticism/Emotional Adjustment, and subjective well-being (SWB) as reflected on the current scientific literature. Ruminative thinking is negative and not adapted to problem solving and, therefore, may be inversely associated with SWB. However, reflection may improve SWB because it might diminish the negative impact of rumination. In this context, it is discussed if  rumination  and reflection could explain SWB beyond the explanation obtained  from the subscales of the personality dimension of Neuroticism. It is also presented a typology of coping and adjustment, obtained from the combination of different levels of rumination and reflection, for evaluating differences of SWB in males and females with diverse levels of rumination and reflection. Contributions of these relationships for interventions are presented.

Palavras-chave : Styles of thought; Subjective well-being; Neuroticism.
