Examination stress results in attentional bias and altered neural reactivity in test-anxious individuals

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Xiaocong Zhang and collaborators from the Research Center for Learning Science, Southeast University, Nanjing, China have published the research work: Examination Stress Results in Attentional Bias and Altered Neural Reactivity in Test-Anxious Individuals, in the Journal: Neural Plasticity of 20/03/2018
  • what: This research investigated neural mechanisms of attentional bias in test-anxious subjects, by using the ERP technique in conjunction with the traditional RT measure. This study found that HTA participants undergoing the stress of academic examinations showed attentional bias toward TR with enhanced N200 amplitude, while LTA participants showed avoidance . . .
