| Résumé : |
Background Cognitive models propose that an attentional bias to negative information (ABNI) plays a key role in the aetiology and maintenance of high trait anxiety. The findings from previous research suggest that high autistic symptoms may attenuate anxiety-linked difference in ABNI. Method This possibility was investigated by screening candidate participants (n = 871) on the Autism Spectrum Quotient and the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and then recruiting four groups representing the combination of high/low autistic traits and high/low trait anxiety (n = 89), with participants completing a dot-probe task. Results Results demonstrated a significant anxiety-linked difference in ABNI in participants high in autistic traits, but not in participants low in autistic traits. Conclusions This pattern of findings stands in clear contradiction to the hypothesis that high levels of autistic traits attenuate anxiety-linked difference in ABNI. |
