Depressed individuals exhibit an attentional bias towards mood-congruent stimuli, yet evidence for biased processing of threat-related information in human interaction remains scarce. Here, we tested whether an attentional bias towards interpersonally aggressive pictures over interpersonally neutral pictures could be observed to a greater extent in depressed participants than in control participants. Eye movements were recorded while the participants freely viewed visually matched interpersonally aggressive and neutral pictures, which were presented in pairs. Across the groups, participants spent more time looking at neutral pictures than at aggressive pictures, probably reflecting avoidance behavior. When the participants could anticipate the stimulus valence, depressed participants – but not controls – showed an early attentional bias towards interpersonally aggressive pictures, as indexed by their longer first fixation durations on aggressive pictures than on neutral pictures. Our results thus preliminarily suggest both an early attentional bias towards interpersonal aggression, which is present, in depressed participants, also when aggression contents are anticipated, and a later attentional avoidance of aggression. The early depression-related bias in information processing may have maladaptive effects on the way depressed individuals perceive and function in social interaction and can, therefore, maintain depressed mood.

抑郁症中对人际攻击的注意偏见——眼动研究

抑郁的个体对情绪一致的刺激表现出注意力偏见,但在人际交往中对威胁相关信息进行偏见处理的证据仍然很少。在这里,我们测试了与控制参与者相比,抑郁参与者是否可以在更大程度上观察到对人际攻击性图片的注意力偏见,而不是人际中性图片。当参与者自由查看视觉匹配的人际攻击性和中性图片时,记录眼球运动,这些图片成对呈现。在各组中,参与者花更多时间看中性图片而不是攻击性图片,这可能反映了回避行为。当参与者可以预期刺激效价时,抑郁的参与者——但不是对照组——表现出对人际攻击性图片的早期注意力偏见,正如他们对攻击性图片的第一次注视时间比对中性图片更长的时间所表明的那样。因此,我们的结果初步表明,早期注意力偏向于人际攻击性,这在抑郁的参与者中存在,也在预期攻击性内容时,以及后来注意避免攻击性。信息处理中与抑郁相关的早期偏见可能会对抑郁个体在社交互动中的感知和运作方式产生不良影响,因此可以维持抑郁情绪。因此,我们的结果初步表明,早期注意力偏向于人际攻击性,这在抑郁的参与者中存在,也在预期攻击性内容时,以及后来注意避免攻击性。信息处理中与抑郁相关的早期偏见可能会对抑郁个体在社交互动中的感知和运作方式产生不良影响,因此可以维持抑郁情绪。因此,我们的结果初步表明,早期注意力偏向于人际攻击性,这在抑郁的参与者中存在,也在预期攻击性内容时,以及后来注意避免攻击性。信息处理中与抑郁相关的早期偏见可能会对抑郁个体在社交互动中的感知和运作方式产生不良影响,因此可以维持抑郁情绪。
