The purpose of the present study was to explore differences in the cognitive representation of stressful memories versus less stressful memories. The breakup of a significant romantic relationship in the last 12 months was used as a common experience. Participants who experienced a breakup rated how stressful this experience was for them (past distress). Participants who had not experienced the breakup of a significant romantic relationship in the last 12 months were included in the study as comparison groups. A multidimensional scaling (MDS) technique was used to measure the cognitive representations of participants' memories of 12 behavioral and emotional events associated with romantic relationships. In addition, participants completed a measure of intrusive thoughts about the relationship and wrote a brief essay describing their deepest thoughts and feelings about their past relationship and the subsequent breakup. The cognitive representation of participants in the low stress breakup group was more clustered than in the high stress breakup group. Post-hoc analysis of current distress over the breakup found that participants who were less able to accept the breakup were less able to recognize differences between emotional and non-emotional events, had more aberrant cognitive representations, had more intrusive thoughts about the breakup, and evidenced a greater use of cause and insight words when asked to describe their past relationship. Results are discussed in terms of cognitive and clinical theories of recovering from a stressful experience.
