Abstract

People may try to suppress or avoid unpleasant, unwanted thoughts, but deliberate attempts to suppress particular thoughts actually produce ironic rebound effect. Wegner and Zanakos(1994) developed a self-report questionnaire measuring general tendency to suppress unwanted thoughts. The current article investigates Korean version of WBSI's reliability, factor structure, and correlates of the WBSI with the various inventories measuring individual differences and psychopathological symptoms. Finally, strategies for controlling unpleasant, unwanted thoughts and their relation with psychopathology and symptoms such as generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, and autogenous and reactive obsessions are investigated.
