本研究考察了自我报告的注意控制在调节与特质焦虑相关的注意偏差中的作用。在简单的检测目标之前，有线索标记潜在的目标位置，如威胁（可能导致负反馈）或安全（可能导致正反馈）。特质焦虑参与者在提示后250毫秒表现出对威胁位置的早期注意偏向，在提示后500毫秒表现出对安全位置的后期注意偏向。在500毫秒的延迟中，注意控制可以缓和焦虑相关的威胁偏见：注意控制较差的焦虑参与者仍然表现出威胁偏见，而注意控制较好的焦虑参与者能够更好地从威胁位置转移。因此。熟练地控制自愿注意可能使焦虑的人限制威胁信息的影响。
This study examined the role of self-reported attentional control in regulating attentional biases related to trait anxiety. Simple detection targets were preceded by cues labeling potential target locations as threatening (likely to result in negative feedback) or safe (likely to result in positive feedback). Trait anxious participants showed an early attentional bias favoring the threatening location 250 ms after the cue and a late bias favoring the safe location 500 ms after the cue. The anxiety-related threat bias was moderated by attentional control at the 500-ms delay: Anxious participants with poor attentional control still showed the threat bias, whereas those with good control were better able to shift from the threatening location. Thus. skilled control of voluntary attention may allow anxious persons to limit the impact of threatening information.
