While impaired attentional disengagement from threatening stimuli is thought to enhance anxiety, there are few studies focusing on this attentional bias in social anxiety. We used the gap task and overlap task to reveal the impaired attentional disengagement from threatening stimuli (angry and disgust faces) in socially anxious undergraduates. High (n=17) and low (n=13) socially anxious participants were asked to fixate on an emotional face (angry, disgust, or happy) or neutral face presented at the center of a screen, and discriminate the peripheral target stimulus. In the gap task, the face switched off and target appeared after the gap period. In the overlap task, the face was still on when the target stimulus appeared. The reaction times for angry faces in high socially anxious participants, compared with in low socially anxious, were longer than those for neutral faces after presentation times of 1000 ms in the overlap task. The results suggest that socially anxious people may have difficulty in disengagement from a socially threatening stimulus, and this occurs in the late part of information processing.

Appearance Schemas Inventory-Revised (ASI-R) consists of two factors, Self-Evaluative Salience (SES) and Motivational Salience (MS). The influence of these two ASI-R factors on mental health is unclear. The present study explored how these factors that are related to appearance schema influenced stress responses and psychological well-being. A cross-sectional study was conducted with female participants (N=517; mean age=48.30 years, SD=12.81). They completed questionnaires including scales assessing appearance schemas, stress responses, and psychological well-being. Data on participants’ height and weight were also recorded. We performed covariance structure analysis to verify our model. It was hypothesized that appearance schemas would influence stress responses and psychological well-being. The results indicated that SES, which assesses beliefs about how people’s appearance influences their self-worth and self-concept, increases stress responses and decreases psychological well-being. In contrast, MS, which assesses the efforts to be, or feel attractive, reduces stress responses and increases psychological well-being. These results suggest that the two factors of ASI-R inversely influence mental health.

The symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD) are often observed in young adults. They have difficulty in adaptation. Therefore, it is important to assess the extent of their BPD symptoms to ascertain intervention. However, there is no scale to assess BPD symptoms and their changes in young adults in Japan. Therefore, we developed a Japanese version of the Quick Evaluation of Severity over Time (QuEST-J) to assess these symptoms and investigated the reliability and validity of this scale in a sample of Japanese undergraduates (N=733). QuEST-J comprises three sub-scales: “Thoughts and Feelings,” “Behaviors-Negative,” and “Behaviors-Positive.” A confirmatory factor analysis corroborates the factorial validity. Moreover, the results indicate enough internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and criterion-related validity. Therefore, QuEST-J is a reliable and valid scale to assess BPD symptoms in young adults.
