The study included 502 people between the age of 18-24. The data were collected through the Sociodemographic Information Form, Dissociation Questionnaire (DIS-Q), Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire and Emotional Expression Questionnaire. According to the findings obtained from the study, as the rumination levels of the individuals in the late adolescent period increased, the level of expressing their feelings decreased and the dissociation levels increased; it was observed that as the expression levels of emotions decreased, the dissociation levels increased. It was found that expressing feelings had a partial mediator effect on the relationship between dissociative findings and rumination levels of individuals in the late adolescent period. It is thought that our study contributed to the literature in terms of examining these variables in a limited number of previous studies.
