In this study of 49 undergraduate university women, those exhibiting a repressive coping style - characterized by defensiveness against negative emotions - were compared to women with low-anxious and high-anxious coping styles during neutral and negative versions of a computerized emotional Stroop task (EST). Using Weinberger, Schwartz, and Davidson's (1979) approach, the present study implemented the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability and the Spielberger Trait Anxiety scales for selection. Participants viewed neutral or negative words during the EST but responded to the color of the word. Analysis of continuous EEG recordings for the negative vs. neutral words revealed that the repressor group differed significantly from the other two groups in many aspects but that low- vs. high-anxious groups differed in fewer aspects. Based upon Eysenck and Derakshan's (1997) model, repressor women appear to differ from low- and high-anxious women by utilizing an inhibitory process to avoid perceiving low-intensity threatening stimuli.
在这项对 49 名本科女大学生的研究中，那些表现出压抑应对方式的女性——其特点是对负面情绪有防御性——与具有低焦虑和高焦虑应对方式的女性在中性和负面的计算机化情绪 Stroop 任务 (EST) 中进行了比较。本研究采用 Weinberger、Schwartz 和 Davidson（1979）的方法，使用 Marlowe-Crowne 社会期望和 Spielberger 特质焦虑量表进行选择。参与者在 EST 期间观看中性或负面单词，但对单词的颜色做出反应。对负面与中性单词的连续 EEG 记录进行分析显示，压抑组在许多方面与其他两组有显著差异，但低焦虑组与高焦虑组在较少方面存在差异。根据 Eysenck 和 Derakshan（1997）的模型，压抑的女性似乎通过利用抑制过程来避免感知低强度的威胁性刺激，从而与低焦虑和高焦虑的女性不同。
