Abstract:

The Schema Therapy Mode Model has been designed to study the tangled schema activations and different sides of the patients. With theoretical and practical advancements, the number and scope of the modes have been increasing. The repetitive negative thinking (rumination and worry) suggested to be a part of the Mode Model is mental behavior related to different psychological disorders (anxiety, mood, and personality disorders). Rumination is defined as cogitations based on the past, and worry is misgivings based on the future. In this narrative review method, we examined the place of rumination and worry in mode literature, and the found studies are presented within a frame. Integrating worry and rumination into the Mode Model will be functional in clinical and theoretical contexts. Nonetheless, during the integration procedure, one should recognize the theories on rumination and worry, e.g., Avoidance, Avoidance from Contrast, Control, Response Styles, etc. Within this scope, researchers will add a broad range of mental behavior spectrums to Coping Modes. Quantitative or qualitative research, such as case studies, effectiveness trials, and process analyses, should be conducted to examine deeply.
