Research Abstract |
Visual scanpaths in response to angry and neutral facial expressions were investigated with social anxiety participants in Study 1 and 2, and the relationship between visual scanpaths and implicit associations in fear structures was studied in Study 3. The results indicated that individuals with high-social anxiety did show the avoidance visual scanpaths to angry faces, but not to neutral faces as did in previous studies. The relationship between visual scanpaths to angry faces and implicit associations was not confirmed. These findings suggest that the relationship between visual scanpaths and implicit association in non-clinical population with high-social anxiety is weaker than in clinical population.
