Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the characteristics of attention bias to aggressive information under self-threat priming in college students with different types of high self-esteem.Methods:A total of 650 college students were selected,and high self-esteem participants were selected through the Self Esteem Scale(SES).Then,43 partic-ipants were selected from different types of high self-esteem(fragile and safe)groups through the Implicit Associa-tion Test(IAT).Each group participated in Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices(SPM)with different difficulty levels to complete self-threat priming,and then completed the spatial cue experiment.When the cue was invalid,the attention bias was obtained according to the variation of the reaction time difference(RTI)between the subjects're-sponses to aggressive words and neutral words.Results:The RTI values of the fragile high self-esteem group were higher under high self-threat priming than that of the secure high self-esteem group(P＜0.01).Under low self-threat priming,there was no significant difference in RTI values among different types of high self-esteem groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Fragile high self-esteem group are more likely to develop attention bias towards aggressive words under high self-threat priming than that of secure high self-esteem group.
