Summary

The study will examine the efficacy of a feedback-based treatment applying eye-tracking (Gaze-Contingent Music Reward Therapy) to change attention and gaze patterns associated with angry faces relative to a response-time-based attention bias modification treatment applying the dot-probe task and a control group.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Gaze-Contingent Feedback Training

Feedback according to participants' viewing patterns, in order to modify their attention away from threat face stimuli.

BEHAVIORAL

Attention Bias Modification

Attention training via repeated trials of a dot-probe task intended to direct attention away from threat stimuli using threat and neutral face stimuli.

BEHAVIORAL

Non-Contingent Feedback Training

Participants listen to a musical track they chose while viewing the face matrices. The music is played throughout and is not contingent upon gaze behavior.
