Demographic variables included age, gender, country of birth, education, employment, and two dichotomous measures indicating presence or absence of medication that may impact attention or mood. The five-point, nine-item inattentive and hyperactivity/impulsivity subscales of the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale Symptom Checklist (ASRS-v1.1; Kessler et al., 2005) were administered. Rumination was measured using the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS-10; Treynor et al., 2003). Racing thoughts was measured using the Racing and Crowded Thoughts Questionnaire (RCTQ-13; Weiner et al., 2019). In the present study, a 4-point scale was administered (permission granted by Weiner). The 7-item anxiety and depression subscales of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21; Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995) were administered.
