The Perseverative Thinking Questionnaire is a 15-item measure of repetitive negative thinking. Items relate to how the respondent ‘typically’ thinks about negative experiences or problems (“The same thoughts keep going through my mind again and again”) and are rated from 0 “Never” to 4 “almost always”. Higher scores indicate higher levels of ruminative thinking.
