双缺陷模型确定了与精神病相关的两个主要因素的独特相关性(帕特里克,2007)。因子1与杏仁核介导的情感缺陷有关,而因子2与高阶认知过程缺陷有关。研究表明,对环境和上下文线索的注意力对情绪和认知至关重要(Ochsner & Gross,2005)。因此,通过扩展,注意力也可能对因子I和因子2的缺陷很重要。本研究采用三种不同的方法,以男性囚犯为样本,以探讨自我报告的注意控制(Derryberry & Reed,2002)和精神病的主要因素之间的关系。在所有三个指标中,因子I与上级注意力控制相关,而因子2与下级注意力控制相关。此外,研究结果提供了支持的外部效度的三种常用的方法来评估精神病。我们认为,异常的注意力控制可能有助于与精神病相关的两个主要症状群。(C)2009爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
The dual-deficit model identifies unique correlates of the two major factors associated with psychopathy (Patrick, 2007). Factor 1 is associated with deficits in amygdala-mediated emotion, while Factor 2 is related to deficits in higher-order cognitive processes. Research suggests that attention to environmental and contextual cues is critical for emotion and cognition (Ochsner & Gross, 2005). Therefore, and by extension, attention may also be important to deficits in both Factor I and Factor 2. The present study utilizes a sample of male prisoners in order to examine the relationship between self-reported attentional control (Derryberry & Reed, 2002) and the major factors of psychopathy, as assessed by three different methods. Across all three measures, Factor I is associated with superior attentional control, whereas Factor 2 is related to inferior attentional control. Furthermore, results provide support for the external validity of three commonly used methods for assessing psychopathy. We propose that anomalous attentional control may contribute to both major symptom clusters associated with psychopathy. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
