“Worry refers to problem-focused thoughts about the future, and these types of thoughts can motivate us to search for goals or solutions [10] and are initially an adaptive response to a threatening situation like the current pandemic. However, when worry becomes excessive or difficult to control, these thoughts can be experienced as negative, and lead to psychological distress [11].”

“…have even reached the conclusion that worry and rumination are both manifestations of the dispositional vulnerability factor of neuroticism, which is believed to reflect the general predisposition to develop psychopathological symptoms such as anxiety and depression (e.g., Segerstrom et al., 2000).”

“Although there is some factor analytic evidence indicating that worry and rumination have distinct features (Fresco et al., 2002; Muris et al., 2004), the findings of these studies seem to justify the conclusion that worry and rumination are closely related cognitive constructs.”

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.
