当前的研究调查了社交焦虑程度高的人以威胁方式解读模糊面部表情的倾向。从自我报告的措施获得的结果与以前的研究中,高度社会焦虑的个人认可的模糊的社会信息的威胁性解释是一致的。更重要的是,高度社会焦虑的参与者表现出相对便利的处理威胁的面孔后,中性的面孔时,启动技术被用来消除工件由于反应选择偏见。这些发现支持了假设的社会焦虑相关的解释性偏见。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The current study investigated the tendency of individuals with high levels of social anxiety to interpret ambiguous facial expressions in a threatening manner. Results obtained from self-report measures were consistent with previous studies in which highly socially anxious individuals endorsed threatening interpretations for ambiguous social information. More importantly, highly socially anxious participants showed relative facilitation of processing of threatening faces following neutral faces when a priming technique was used to eliminate artifact due to response selection bias. These findings support the hypothesized social anxiety-linked interpretive bias. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
