Abstract
A revolution in the science of emotion has emerged in recent decades, with the potential to create a paradigm shift in decision theories. The research reveals that emotions constitute potent, pervasive, predictable, sometimes harmful and sometimes ...Read More

The proposed cognitive model of panic is described, which is consistent with the nature of the cognitive disturbance in panic patients, the perceived sequence of events in an attack, the occurrence of ‘spontaneous’ attacks, the role of hyperventilation in attacks,The effects of sodium lactate and the literature on psychological and pharmacological treatments.

Behaviour Research and TherapySelective processing of threat cues in anxiety states
1,014 Citations1985Andrew Mathews, Colin MacLeod
Results were interpreted as evidence that the individual content of danger schemata determine the type of material that is selectively processed, while the extent of interference observed depends on current anxiety level.

A version of the Stroop test was developed which requires colour naming of spider words and desensitization of phobics significantly reduced interference on the Spider Stroop.

Rape victims with PTSD evidenced a longer response latency for color naming of rape-related words than for other target-word types, and response latencies of non-PTSD victims and nonvictim control subjects did not differ across word types.

Behaviour Research and TherapyDoes anxiety lead to selective processing of threat-related information?
282 Citations1991Maryanne Martin, Rachel Williams +1 more
Four experiments investigating the detailed nature of the attentional bias in anxiety found generalized anxiety disorder patients were slower than non-anxious controls at colour naming both threat words and positive words, consistent with the emotionality hypothesis.
Cognition & EmotionAttentional bias to threat in clinical anxiety states
255 Citations1992Karin Mogg, Andrew Mathews +1 more
Attentional responses to threat stimuli were assessed in anxious patients, normal controls, and subjects who had recovered from a clinical anxiety state to try to understand the motivation behind these responses.

240 Citations1989Andrew Mathews, Anne Richards +1 more
Findings are taken as evidence that, although the different meanings of ambiguous stimuli may be processed in parallel by all subjects, an interpretive bias operates such that anxiety-prone individuals tend to become preferentially aware of the more threatening meaning of such events.

Findings suggest that sensitivity to fear-relevant stimuli is due to fear and not familiarity.

The results suggest that depression might not fundamentally impair the resources required for good performance on such tasks, and the results' relevance to resource-allocation, initiative, and inhibition accounts of depressive deficits in memory is discussed.

Inconsistent with the emotionality hypothesis of Stroop interference, PD patients rated positive words as more emotional than catastrophe words, but took longer to color-name the latter than the former, while OCD patients resembled PD patients in terms of interference, and arousal did not enhance interference for threat words in PD patients.

Despite the absence of a systematic correlation between slides and outcomes, untreated phobics strongly overestimated the covariation between spider slides and shock, and treated subjects were more confident about their contingency estimates than were treated subjects.

Two experiments investigate the effect of an induced mood on the incidental learning of emotionally toned words by means of a suggestion technique and rated the emotional valence of a list of words and found mood-congruent learning was observed.
