The goal of the current study is to clarify the relationship between social information processing (e.g., visual attention to cues of hostility, hostility attribution bias, and facial expression emotion labeling) and aggressive tendencies. Thirty adults were recruited in the eye-tracking study that measured various components in social information processing. Baseline aggressive tendencies were measured using the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (AQ). Visual attention towards hostile objects was measured as the proportion of eye gaze fixation duration on cues of hostility. Hostility attribution bias was measured with the rating results for emotions of characters in the images. The results show that the eye gaze duration on hostile characters was significantly inversely correlated with the AQ score and less eye contact with an angry face. The eye gaze duration on hostile object was not significantly associated with hostility attribution bias, although hostility attribution bias was significantly positively associated with the AQ score. Our findings suggest that eye gaze fixation time towards non-hostile cues may predict aggressive tendencies.
本研究的目的是阐明社会信息处理（例如，对敌意线索的视觉关注、敌意归因偏差和面部表情情感识别）与攻击倾向之间的关系。30名成年人参与了这项眼动追踪研究，该研究测量了社会信息处理中的各种成分。使用布斯-佩里攻击性问卷（AQ）测量基线攻击倾向。对敌意物体的视觉关注以注视敌意线索的持续时间比例来衡量。敌意归因偏差通过对图像中人物情绪的评分结果来测量。结果表明，对敌意人物的注视持续时间与AQ得分显著负相关，且与愤怒面孔的眼神接触较少。对敌意物体的注视持续时间与敌意归因偏差无显著关联，尽管敌意归因偏差与AQ得分显著正相关。我们的研究结果表明，对非敌意线索的注视固定时间可能预测攻击倾向。
