The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effects of interpersonal stress between co-rumination and depressive symptoms. The subjects comprised 480 high school students and the Co-rumination Scale Questionnaire (CRQ), Interpersonal Stress Scale, and Center for Epidemiological Studies- Depression Scales(CES-D) were used. We performed hierarchical regression analysis by means of the SPSS 23.0 statistical program and graphical analysis and simple slope analysis were also conducted. The results were as follows: First, only adolescents’ peer stress exhibited a significant moderating effect on the relationship between co-rumination and depressive symptoms. Second, in the case of male adolescents, peer stress and teacher stress showed significant moderating effects between co-rumination and depressive symptoms. This study highlights the importance of taking interpersonal stress into account when examining the relationship between co-rumination and depressive symptoms.
