Introduction: Cognitive models of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) posit that maladaptive beliefs about intrusive thinking contribute to the disorder's development and maintenance. However, the findings concerning one notable belief, thought-action fusion (TAF), have been inconsistent. Current conceptualizations of TAF may conflate constructs such as magical thinking, sensitivity, and thought content that are already the subject of informative, interdisciplinary literatures. Methods: To tease apart these constructs, adult participants (N = 249) reported their trait levels of sensitivity and magical thinking, and were randomly assigned to engage with an intrusive thought in one of three content areas. We hypothesized that morality-related content would lead to heightened maladaptive outcomes, but only in combination with higher trait levels of sensitivity and magical thinking. Results: Results indicated that morality-related content, along with sensitivity to morality, played more of a prominent role in maladaptive outcomes, with magical thinking being implicated in general outcomes like worry. Discussion: These findings suggest that the link between TAF and maladaptive outcomes may depend on which TAF elements are present for an individual. Sensitivity, in tandem with other TAF elements (e.g., morality-related content, magical thinking) is predictive of divergent outcomes (e.g., worrying, urges to neutralize) and thus may be an important target of future interventions aimed at reducing TAF, worrying, and/or OC symptoms.

神奇思维、敏感性和思想内容在思想-行动融合中的作用

简介:强迫症 (OCD) 的认知模型认为,对侵入性思维的​​不适应信念会导致该障碍的发展和维持。然而,关于一种值得注意的信念,思想-行动融合(TAF)的研究结果并不一致。当前对 TAF 的概念化可能会将魔法思维、敏感性和思想内容等概念混为一谈,这些概念已经是信息丰富的跨学科文献的主题。方法:为了梳理这些结构,成年参与者(N = 249)报告了他们的敏感度和神奇思维的特质水平,并被随机分配到三个内容领域之一的侵入性思维。我们假设与道德相关的内容会导致更严重的适应不良结果,但只有结合更高的敏感性和神奇思维的特质水平。结果:结果表明,与道德相关的内容,以及对道德的敏感性,在适应不良的结果中发挥了更大的作用,神奇的思维与担忧等一般结果有关。讨论:这些研究结果表明,TAF 与适应不良结果之间的联系可能取决于个体存在哪些 TAF 元素。敏感性与其他 TAF 元素(例如,与道德相关的内容、神奇的思维)一起预测不同的结果(例如,令人担忧、中和的冲动),因此可能是未来旨在减少 TAF、令人担忧、和/或 OC 症状。除了对道德的敏感性,在适应不良的结果中发挥了更重要的作用,神奇的思维与担忧等一般结果有关。讨论:这些研究结果表明,TAF 与适应不良结果之间的联系可能取决于个体存在哪些 TAF 元素。敏感性与其他 TAF 元素(例如,与道德相关的内容、神奇的思维)一起预测不同的结果(例如,令人担忧、中和的冲动),因此可能是未来旨在减少 TAF、令人担忧、和/或 OC 症状。除了对道德的敏感性,在适应不良的结果中发挥了更重要的作用,神奇的思维与担忧等一般结果有关。讨论:这些研究结果表明,TAF 与适应不良结果之间的联系可能取决于个体存在哪些 TAF 元素。敏感性与其他 TAF 元素(例如,与道德相关的内容、神奇的思维)一起预测不同的结果(例如,令人担忧、中和的冲动),因此可能是未来旨在减少 TAF、令人担忧、和/或 OC 症状。这些研究结果表明,TAF 与适应不良结果之间的联系可能取决于个体存在哪些 TAF 元素。敏感性与其他 TAF 元素(例如,与道德相关的内容、神奇的思维)一起预测不同的结果(例如,令人担忧、中和的冲动),因此可能是未来旨在减少 TAF、令人担忧、和/或 OC 症状。这些研究结果表明,TAF 与适应不良结果之间的联系可能取决于个体存在哪些 TAF 元素。敏感性与其他 TAF 元素(例如,与道德相关的内容、神奇的思维)一起预测不同的结果(例如,令人担忧、中和的冲动),因此可能是未来旨在减少 TAF、令人担忧、和/或 OC 症状。
