Beliefs about mood moderate the relationship of stress to illness and symptom reporting
Open accessAbstract
The current prospective study examined how characteristic beliefs about mood affect illness and symptom reporting. Using the Trait Meta-Mood Scale, 134 undergraduate (76 females and 58 males) reported their beliefs about attention to, clarity, and reparability of mood. Self-reported stress, illness, and symptoms were collected at three times following assessment of trait meta-mood, during times of general stress, and immediately prior to a class examination. Results indicate that, at increasing levels of distress, those who believe in greater attention to mood were more likely to report physical symptoms. In addition, those individuals who said that they generally make efforts to maintain positive mood were less likely to report illness than those less likely to engage in mood repair. The findings suggest that a person's general manner of evaluating or appraising mood is an important moderator of the relation between distress and symptom and illness reporting.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
