简要总结
This project seeks to identify neural mechanisms underlying the tendency for anxious individuals to pay more attention to threatening information than to other types of information. A computerized treatment designed to train individuals to reduce their attention towards threat will be tested, with a focus on understanding the aspects of brain function that predict response to the treatment. This work could ultimately lead to the ability to treat anxiety more effectively by directly targeting the aspects of brain function that are altered in a given patient.

- •be between the ages of 18 and 55 years,
- •score >45 on the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-trait form.
- •score >=75th percentile on the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0
排除标准
- •Current medication or Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for anxiety or depression;
