Developmental Relations Among Behavioral Inhibition, Anxiety, and Attention Biases to Threat and Positive Information

TL;DR: Analysis of relations between behavioral inhibition assessed in toddlerhood and attention biases to threat and positive faces and maternal-reported anxiety assessed when children were 5- and 7-year-old revealed that BI predicted anxiety at age 7 in children with AB toward threat, away from positive, or with no bias, at age7.
