This book was released on 1982 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine and compare the effectiveness of EMG biofeedbacK and Attention Control Training as instrumental techniques for muscle tension reduction and relaxation training. Twenty-seven male subjects were administered Spielberger's State Anxiety Inventory and then randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. The two experimental groups participated in three, twenty minute relaxation training sessions each week, for six weeks, while no treatment was given to the control group. EMG activity was monitored at the frontal region for all three groups. A four-way ANOVAR with repeated measures indicated a significant treatment group by periods interaction at the p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anxious individuals preferentially attend to threat-relevant information in their environment. Furthermore, it may be possible to train attentional bias. Moreover, experimentally decreasing or increasing attentional bias for threat appears to decrease anxiety following stressful tasks. Given that anxiety is characterized by poor attentional control, one possible explanation for these findings may be that attention training programs target more general attention control processes. The primary goal of the current study was to test whether an attentional training paradigm using emotionally neutral stimuli would be effective in modifying attentional bias, improving general attention control, and would be effective in mitigating anxiety following a social stressor. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two probe detection conditions (i.e., active training versus control). Results revealed that participants who received active attention training developed a relative bias in the anticipated direction, but only for trials low in perceptual load. Additionally, these participants demonstrated significantly more improvement on an independent assessment of attention control than did participants in the control condition. Groups did not differ in self-reported anxiety or performance quality following the stressor. Results suggest that attention training programs promote attention control. Results are consistent with the account that emotional versions of the attention training task may improve attention control in the context of threat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an approach to quantifying consciousness and its various states. It represents over ten years of work in developing, test ing, and researching the use of relatively simple self-report question naires in the retrospective assessment of subjective or phenomenologi cal experience. While the simplicity of the method allows for subjective experience to be reliably and validly assessed across various short stim ulus conditions, the flexibility of the approach allows the cognitive psy chologist, consciousness researcher, and mental health professional to quantify and statistically assess the phenomenological variables associ ated with various stimulus conditions, altered-state induction tech niques, and clinical procedures. The methodology allows the cognitive psychologist and mental health professional to comprehensively quantify the structures and pat terns of subjective experience dealing with imagery, attention, affect, volitional control, internal dialogue, and so forth to determine how these phenomenological structures might covary during such stimulus conditions as free association, a sexual fantasy, creative problem solving, or a panic attack. It allows for various phenomenological pro cesses to be reported, quantified, and statistically assessed in a rather comprehensive fashion that should help shed greater understanding on the nature of mind or consciousness.
