: This study suggests that rumination and locus of control may influence how naturally cycling individuals perceive the severity of their premenstrual symptoms, rather than the actual intensity of the symptoms themselves. In contrast, trait anger appears to be more directly involved in the development of premenstrual disorders. This indicates that therapeutic interventions should focus more on addressing anger, irritability, and conflict resolution.
