Fear and Attention

The main idea of this project is that attention to threatening stimuli is dependent on all other concurrent processing demands, irrespective of their nature.

That is, processing of threat can presumably be influenced by both external and internal factors.

The aim is to investigate if responses to fear-relevant and feared material can be manipulated by external and internal means.

The project has produced several conference and peer-reviewed publications, and one doctoral thesis and more are in the pipeline
