This paper investigates the continued influence effect, where people continue relying on misinformation after it has been retracted, particularly when it aligns with their pre-existing worldview. The study focuses on depressive rumination, hypothesizing that negative misinformation retractions might be less effective in depressive ruminators. However, the results showed that in depressive ruminators, retractions of negative misinformation were as effective as in control participants, and even more effective than retractions of positive misinformation, suggesting an attentional bias that enhances the updating of negative information in depressive rumination.
