摘要：

The current study examined how reactions to a negative mood manipulation and a rumination/distractition task differed between high defensive (HD) and low defensive (LD) individuals. At baseline, high defensive participants exhibited significantly greater relative left frontal EEG activity than low defensive participants. HD also exhibited greater relative left anterior activity during both the negative mood induction and during the rumination/distraction task, regardless of group assignment. Contrary to predictions, there were no differences in self-reported mood between HD and LD in either the rumination or distraction group. A significant interaction was found between gender and group, indicating that anterior alpha asymmetry patterns differed for men and women during the rumination/distraction task.
