Abstract:

Ruminative thinking patterns may result in negative mood state that may further become the leading cause of depression in old age. Many people start practicing spirituality to deal with the rumination and developing deeper understanding of the meaning and purpose of life. The major goal of this research paper is to investigate how much success ruminating older adults gain in controlling depression and does spirituality really helps them in dealing with depression? How gender effects the interplay between rumination, depression and spirituality?
