Using self-report measures of rumination, suicidal desire, and mindfulness, this study examined whether mindfulness moderates the relationship between rumination and proximal predictors of suicidal desire (Van Orden et al., 2010). Participants completed the Rumination Response Scale (RRS; Nolen-Hoeksema & Morrow, 1991) to measure rumination and the 15-item Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (INQ-15; Van Orden et al., 2012), to measure predictors of suicidal desire. The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ; Baer et al., 2006) measured mindfulness. After a hierarchical regression analysis, results suggested a significant effect of brooding rumination in proximal predictors of suicidal desire, but did not support a moderating relationship
