This study examined the association of dispositional self - focused attention to mood rated at the time of a negative social interaction in 100 employed, middle - age adults using experience sampling methodology. Results revealed that a self - focusing style was associated with higher negative mood and lower positive mood at the time of a negative social interaction during 3 days of everyday activities. Women who were chronically self - focused were particularly vulnerable to these negative social interactions in the daily environment; they were more likely than men to report lower positive mood during the interaction. In addition, 30 minutes after the negative social interaction, self -focused individuals with higher preexisting levels of depressive symptoms continued to report higher levels of negative mood and lower levels of positive mood relative to individuals who were not self - focused and did not report higher depressive symptoms. These results provide support for the role of self - focused attention in the etiology and maintenance of negative moods.
