The delay discounting paradigm was used to examine its utility in understanding motivational factors among socially anxious individuals. Participants (n=88) who reported high and low levels of social anxiety were randomly assigned to either a social threat or non-threat condition and their subsequent rates of discounting were examined. A significant difference in rates of discounting was found between the high and low social anxiety groups within the non-threat condition, with high social anxiety participants showing increased discounting. This study suggests that a modified version of the delay discounting paradigm may be useful in understanding motivational factors in social anxiety.
延迟折扣范式被用于检验其在理解社交焦虑个体动机因素方面的效用。报告社交焦虑水平高和低的参与者(n = 88)被随机分配到社交威胁或非威胁条件下,并检查他们随后的折扣率。在非威胁条件下,高社交焦虑组和低社交焦虑组之间的折扣率存在显著差异,高社交焦虑参与者的折扣率增加。这项研究表明,延迟折扣范式的修改版本可能有助于理解社交焦虑中的动机因素。
