Unreliability of the dot probe task
European Journal of Personality, 2005The dot probe task is a widely used measure of attention allocation to threatening stimuli. The present two studies examine the reliability of different versions of this task using words as well as pictures as stimulus material. Estimates of both internal consistency and retest reliability over one week lead to the conclusion that the dot probe task is

Fleeting reliability in the dot-probe task [PDF]
Psychological Research, 2017 In a dot-probe task, two cues-one emotional and one neutral-are followed by a probe in one of their locations. Faster responses to probes co-located with the emotional stimulus are taken as evidence of attentional bias. Several studies indicate that such attentional bias measures have poor reliability, even though ERP studies show that people reliably ...

Pareidolic faces receive prioritized attention in the dot-probe task
Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2023Face pareidolia occurs when random or ambiguous inanimate objects are perceived as faces. While real faces automatically receive prioritized attention compared with nonface objects, it is unclear whether pareidolic faces similarly receive special attention. We hypothesized that, given the evolutionary importance of broadly detecting animacy, pareidolic

Extended testing with the dot-probe task increases test–retest reliability and validity
Cognitive Processing, 2018The dot-probe task is used to measure attentional biases toward threat. However, the test-retest reliability and validity of the task have been called into question. No studies to date have included an extended number of testing sessions or tailored the task to individual participants by incorporating self-relevant stimuli-doing so may improve ...

Central nervous activity during a dot probe task with facial expressions in fibromyalgia
Biological Psychology, 2022Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic pain condition accompanied by affective symptoms and cognitive impairments. This study investigated central nervous correlates of attentional and emotional processing in FMS. Therefore, event-related potentials were recorded in 26 FMS patients and 26 healthy controls during a dot probe task, which required ...

Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, 2023
AbstractBackgroundAttentional biases to suicide‐related stimuli have been linked to suicide‐related outcomes. However, behavioral tasks that have been previously modified to capture suicide‐specific attentional biases have demonstrated inconsistent reliability and validity.

The effects of priming in a cued dot‐probe task on appearance‐related attentional biases in women
International Journal of Eating Disorders, 2017 AbstractThe dot‐probe task (DPT) is a reaction time measure of attentional bias. Research using this task has found inconsistent patterns of appearance‐related attentional biases in women. This study examined the effects of a novel priming variation of the DPT, which incorporated additional cues into each trial of the task, on measurement of such ...

Attentional bias to pictures of fear-relevant animals in a dot probe task.
Emotion, 2005Attentional bias to fear-relevant animals was assessed in 69 participants not preselected on self-reported anxiety with the use of a dot probe task showing pictures of snakes, spiders, mushrooms, and flowers. Probes that replaced the fear-relevant stimuli (snakes and spiders) were found faster than probes that replaced the non-fear-relevant stimuli ...
