特质焦虑大学生注意偏向的实验研究

焦虑与注意偏向的研究是近年来情绪与认知领域的热点.本研究采用点探测和线索靶子两个实验任务来探讨特质焦虑大学生注意偏向的特点及其内在机制.结果表明:(1)高特质焦虑大学生对负性情绪词附近靶刺激的反应时显著短于中性和正性情绪词附近的靶刺激.表现出一种对负性刺激的注意偏向.而低特质焦虑大学生没有出现注意偏向;(2)高低特质焦虑大学生在有效线索情况下反应时没有显著差异;在无效线索情况下.高特质焦虑大学生对以负性情绪词为线索的靶刺激反应时显著长于对其他靶刺激的反应时,表现出一种对负性刺激的空间注意的解除困难.因此,高特质焦虑个体对负性刺激的注意偏向是一种注意解除困难.

The Characteristic and Mechanism of Attentional Bias in College Students of Trait Anxiety

This study explored the attentional bias in Chinese students of trait anxiety.The results indicated that(1) reaction time of high anxiety individuals' negative emotional words was shorter than that of neutral and positive words;(2) there were no reaction time differences when high anxiety individuals were given valid clues for emotional words;however,when negative words as invalid clues were given,their target reaction time was longer than that of other word clues.These findings suggest that high trait anxi...
