This study examined perceived social support as moderator between of the relationship between rumination (brooding) and students’ adjustment to university, it also explored rumination (brooding) as a mediator between the relationship of gender and student adjustment to university. Participants included 71 first year undergraduate, graduate, and transfer students. The interaction between perceived social support and brooding was not significant.. Likewise, brooding as a mediator between gender and student adjustment was not significant.
