本研究考察了高社交焦虑和低社交焦虑的学生在习惯化方面的差异。参与者发表了三次即兴演讲,每一次都有短暂的休息间隔。在演讲过程中监测了皮肤电导和心率。在每一次演讲之后,参与者完成了紧张、心率和手汗量的自我评级,以及修改后的社交自我陈述测试。低焦虑控制显示,在三个试验中,负面预期和自我报告的紧张、心率和出汗活动显著减少。低焦虑受试者的实际心率也在试验中显著下降。相比之下,在三次试验中,高度焦虑的受试者在上述焦虑和压力指标中的任何一项都没有明显下降。在两组试验中,皮肤电导指标都有所增加,但高焦虑组比低焦虑对照组增加得更多。结果表明,高度焦虑的参与者对紧张的社交情境的认知和自主反应迟缓。(C)1997年爱思唯尔科学有限公司。
This study examined differences in habituation between high and low socially anxious Ss. Participants gave three impromptu speeches, each separated by a brief rest interval. Skin conductance and heart rate were monitored during the speeches. Following each speech participants completed self-ratings of nervousness, heart rate, and palmar sweat activity as well as a modified Social Interaction Self Statement Test. Low anxious controls showed significant reduction of negative expectations and self-reported nervousness, heart rate, and sweat activity across the three trials. Actual heart rate of low-anxious subjects also decreased significantly across trials. In contrast, high anxious subjects did not evidence significant decreases in any of the above measures of anxiety and stress across the three trials. Skin conductance measures increased across trials for both groups, but increased more for the high anxious group than low-anxious controls. Results indicate that high anxiety participants are slow to decrease cognitive and autonomic responsiveness to stressful social situations. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
