| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present study was to examine influences of anxiety on two components of attentional bias, facilitated engagement to threat and impeded disengagement from threat. Results showed that the facilitated engagement to threat measured by the Attentional Blink task, which was not detected by the Emotional Stroop task and the Dot-Probe task, related to anxiety and could be a index of subjective anxiety levels and of effects of psychological treatments.
