This study examined the retrieval of autobiographical memories when prompted by automatic thoughts that were representative of maladaptive schema content specific to 2 anxiety disorders. Participants with panic disorder (n = 20), those with social phobia (n = 22) and non-anxious participants (n = 20) indicated the first specific memory that came to mind when cued with panic-related, social phobia-related and control automatic thoughts. Panic participants retrieved memories cued with panic disorder-related automatic thoughts more quickly than social phobic and non-anxious participants, and social phobic participants retrieved memories cued with social phobia-related automatic thoughts more quickly than non-anxious participants. Relative to non-anxious participants, participants in both patient groups retrieved more anxious/worried memories when cued with automatic thoughts related to their diagnosis and more fearful memories when cued with either type of diagnosis-related automatic thought. Results indicate that panic and social phobic participants were characterized by general threat-relevant autobiographical memory biases.
本研究考察了在由代表两种焦虑症特定适应不良图式内容的自动思维引发时，自传体记忆的提取情况。恐慌症患者（n = 20）、社交恐惧症患者（n = 22）和非焦虑参与者（n = 20）指出，当被与恐慌、社交恐惧症相关的自动思维以及对照自动思维提示时，首先想到的具体记忆。恐慌症参与者比社交恐惧症患者和非焦虑参与者更快地提取出由与恐慌症相关的自动思维提示的记忆，社交恐惧症患者比非焦虑参与者更快地提取出由与社交恐惧症相关的自动思维提示的记忆。相对于非焦虑参与者，两个患者组的参与者在被与他们的诊断相关的自动思维提示时，提取出更多焦虑/担忧的记忆，在被任何一种与诊断相关的自动思维提示时，提取出更多恐惧的记忆。结果表明，恐慌症和社交恐惧症参与者具有与一般威胁相关的自传体记忆偏差。
