Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary study parameters/outcome: A repeated measures ANOVA with Target TMS SOA ( 30ms , 60ms , 90ms , 120ms , 150ms , 180ms , 210ms , 240ms , 270ms , 300ms ) and Target Type ( threatening ( CS + ) , non -threatening ( CS ) and Cuevalidity (valid, invalid ) as factors will be performed on percentage correct and reaction times. If appropriate, planned comparisons between the conditions will be carried out.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary study parameters/outcome: In addition to our primary objective , we will investigate a possible correlation between the degree of anxiety as measured by the VAS and the STAI -T with re - orienting, as indexed by the difference in performance on the CS + target and CS- target.
