The present cross-sectional study explored the relations between fear-enhancing parenting behaviors (modeling and threat information transmission) and children's cognitive biases and anxiety symptoms. Participants were 258 children aged 7-12 years (132 boys and 126 girls), and their mothers (n = 199) and/or fathers (n = 117). Children and parents completed the Parental Enhancement of Anxious Cognitions questionnaire, which measures parental modeling and threat information transmission, while children also filled in a scale for assessing anxiety symptoms. In addition, children conducted a number of computerized tasks for measuring confirmation and interpretation bias. The data indicated that both biases mediated the relationship between threat information transmission (of both parents) and children's anxiety symptoms. Only interpretation bias significantly mediated the relationship between modeling (of mothers) and anxiety symptoms. These findings give partial support for the hypothesis that cognitive biases play a mediating role in the relation between fear-enhancing parental behaviors and children's anxiety symptoms.
本横断面研究探讨了强化恐惧的养育行为（示范和威胁信息传递）与儿童认知偏差及焦虑症状之间的关系。参与者为258名7至12岁的儿童（132名男孩和126名女孩）及其母亲（n = 199）和/或父亲（n = 117）。儿童和父母完成了《焦虑认知的父母强化问卷》，该问卷用于测量父母的示范和威胁信息传递，同时儿童还填写了一份评估焦虑症状的量表。此外，儿童还进行了一些用于测量确认偏差和解释偏差的计算机化任务。数据表明，两种偏差均介导了（父母双方的）威胁信息传递与儿童焦虑症状之间的关系。只有解释偏差显著介导了（母亲的）示范与焦虑症状之间的关系。这些发现部分支持了以下假设：认知偏差在强化恐惧的父母行为与儿童焦虑症状之间的关系中起中介作用。
