Answer to Question 1

Interpersonal psychotherapy for depression includes helping depressed persons recognize and deal effectively with interpersonal issues that concern their depression. The therapy generally entails around 16 sessions. As Craighead et al. (2007, p. 298) note, the primary problem areas targeted include unresolved grief, interpersonal disputes, role transitions, and interpersonal deficits (e.g., social isolation).. Thus, as in behavioral social skills training, the social context of the disorder is addressed as a focus of treatmentin this case, the primary focus.

Answer to Question 2

Ruminative thinking is a repetitive form of thinking in which one repeatedly and in an abstract-evaluative way ponders about oneself, and about the possible causes, meaning, and implications of one's sad and depressed feelings.
