AbstractBackground: Rumination is one of the extreme negative cognitions in patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). It is assumed that some cognitive problems such as attentional control can facilitate rumination and some internal capabilities such as resiliency can reduce engaging in these ruminations. Objectives: The present study investigated the relationship between rumination with attentional control and resiliency in patients with OCD. Patients and Methods: In this correlational study, 50 patients with OCD were selected through accessible purposive sampling. The data was obtained through ruminative response, Connor and Davidson resiliency, and scalability questionnaires and were analyzed using the Pearson correlation and multiple regression tests. Results: The results indicated a significant negative correlation (P = 0.001) between rumination and attentional control (r = 0.573) and resiliency (r = 0.579). Results of regression analysis indicated increased attentional control and resiliency can predict reduction of rumination (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Regarding that attentional control and resiliency are associated with rumination and can predict rumination in patients with obsession, nurturing resiliency traits and teaching techniques to improve attentional control can be effective in the control and prevention of rumination.en
