本研究的主要目的是研究年轻人的童年虐待报告与他们目前对面部情绪表现的注意和解释偏见之间的关系。与预测一致,报告有中度至重度童年虐待史的个体表现出对愤怒面孔的优先关注,并且在情绪强度较低的情况下,对愤怒表情的检测灵敏度更高。注意力和解释偏差都是针对愤怒的脸,而不是快乐或悲伤的脸。这些结果与童年虐待经历可能导致经验特异性信息处理偏见的假设相一致。
The primary goal of this study was to examine the relations between young adults' reports of childhood abuse and their current attention and interpretation biases for facial displays of emotion. Consistent with prediction, individuals reporting a history of moderate to severe childhood abuse exhibited preferential attention to angry faces and increased sensitivity in the detection of angry expressions at lower levels of emotional intensity. Both the attention and interpretation biases were specific to angry rather than happy or sad faces. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that experiences of childhood abuse may contribute to the development of experience-specific information-processing biases.
