TL;DR: A brief resilience survey probing self-reliance, emotion-regulation, interpersonal-relationship patterns and neighborhood-environment was developed and applied online during the acute COVID-19 outbreak and on a crowdsourcing research website advertised through social media, setting a stage for longitudinal studies evaluating mental health trajectories following CO VID-19 pandemic.

TL;DR: Examination of the interrelations among BI, attention biases to threat, and social withdrawal already manifest in early childhood provides further support for models associating attention with socioemotional development and the later emergence of clinical anxiety.

TL;DR: Examining how two cognitive processes—attention shifting and inhibitory control—laboratory assessed at 48 months of age moderated the association between 24-month BI and anxiety symptoms in the preschool years suggested that different cognitive processes may influence relative levels of risk or adaptation depending upon a child’s temperamental reactivity.

TL;DR: The results suggest the presence of rudimentary systems of executive attention in infants and support further studies using anticipatory looking as a measure of individual differences in attention in infancy.

TL;DR: High socially anxious and low socially anxious individuals performed a modified dot-probe task in which they were shown either a neutral or socially threatening prime word prior to each trial, demonstrating that suppression of attention bias can occur after a transient activation of the fear system.
