研究人员研究了精神病人格特征得分低和高的个人对情感面孔感知的准确性。由于精神病的特点是缺乏恐惧,预期在具有高度精神病人格特征的个体中,对恐惧面部表情的识别受损。525名健康学生完成了行为抑制量表和行为激活量表(BIS/BAS)。选择了16名精神病人格特征得分高的受试者(弱BIS/强BAS)和16名精神病人格特征得分低的受试者(强BIS/弱BAS)。变形任务被用来衡量面部情绪知觉的准确性。正如假设的那样,与精神病人格特征得分低的小组相比,精神病人格特征得分高的小组在识别恐惧面孔方面的准确性较差。这些发现表明,低恐惧反应通常观察到的精神病与恐惧识别缺陷。(C)2004爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The accuracy of perception of emotional faces was studied in individuals scoring low and high on psychopathic personality characteristics. Since psychopathy is characterised by a lack of fear, impaired recognition of fearful facial expression was expected in individuals with high psychopathic personality characteristics. 525 Healthy students completed the Behavioural Inhibition Scale and the Behavioural Activation Scale (BIS/BAS). 16 Subjects scoring high on psychopathic personality characteristics (weak BIS/strong BAS) and 16 subjects scoring low on psychopathic personality characteristics (strong BIS/weak BAS) were selected. A morphing task was used to measure the accuracy of facial emotional perception. As hypothesised, the group scoring high on psychopathic personality characteristics was less accurate in the recognition of fearful faces compared to the group scoring low on psychopathic personality characteristics. These findings suggest that low fear responsivity commonly observed in psychopathy is associated with a fear recognition deficit. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
