It was found that there was no difference between groups RT or correct answers. In the task, participants should indicate whether a particular face was present in the trio presented earlier, before and after the ABM. In Experiment 3, we sought to verify whether the correct answers and response time (RT) to brief emotional stimuli were altered after positive ABM. In Study 2 (Experiments 3 and 4), data collection was performed remotely. Thus, it is understood that the attentional bias towards faces considered threatening (disgust and anger) for the SAD has changed. It was observed that, after the neutral ABM, there was a decrease in fixations only on disgust faces, and after the positive ABM there was a reduction in the duration of fixations only on the angry faces.
In Experiment 2, we sought to investigate changes in fixations after attentional bias modification (ABM) intervention in subjects with SAD symptoms. No difference was found between groups in amount and duration of fixations, which indicates that mild anxiogenic situations did not affect the ocular pattern of visual exploration. Next, they observed trios of emotional faces and pairs of photographs with positive and negative social interactions. In Experiment 1, subjects with symptoms of social anxiety disorder (SAD) and controls were subjected to a mild anxiogenic situation and watched scenes of anxiogenic or non-anxiogenic situations. In Study 1 (Experiments 1 and 2), the effects of social anxiety and an attentional bias modification task on eye tracking patterns were analyzed. In this work, we performed 2 studies, with 2 experiments each. The attentional bias modification intervention (ABM) imposes a shift of attention to a non-threatening stimulus, which may lead to a decrease in SAD symptoms. People with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) in social encounters tend to intensify attention to threatening stimuli.
On the other hand, this effect was partial considering the caregiver's self-kindness and mental health, through the burden, suggesting that self-kindness proves to be a protective variable of the individual, favoring a better perception of the care burden and that being treated with patience and kindness can be a resource used to adapt to the context of care overload, reducing the impact of negative events and depressive symptoms.Įye tracking and behavioral response in evaluation and attentional bias modification in people with social anxiety symptoms The results indicated that there is a statistically significant indirect effect of self-kindness on the caregiver's physical health, through burden. All volunteers answered the questionnaires that were made available online. For this, 149 informal caregivers participated in this study. Therefore, the present study aims to analyze the mediating role of care overload in the relationship between self-kindness and physical and mental health in informal caregivers of people with NMD. In this perspective, the concept of self-kindness was associated with positive outcomes that seem to be beneficial for caregivers. However, the act of caring can be seen as less threatening or evaluated by the caregiver as a situation that he is able to face, with internal and external resources. The dynamics involved in this care process can generate stressful conditions capable of compromising the caregiver's health and well-being. With this loss, these people start to rely on the care of family members or friends who assume the implicit commitment to assist, in a continuous, prolonged and unpaid manner, the needs of the person receiving care. Major Neurocognitive Disorder results in a decrease in intellectual faculties, changes in personality and behavior, having a degree of impact sufficient to cause loss of autonomy and quality of life.
