Effect of Avoidance Coping Strategy on Appearance-related Stimuli: Using Eye-tracker

Abstract

This study attempted to investigate the attentional bias and emotional change of coping strategy user when appearance-related stimuli presented. Participants were 24 female college students and divided into two groups(high-avoidance group, N=12; low-avoidance group, N=12) by K-BICSI(The Korean Version of the Body Image Coping Strategies Inventory). Attentional bias was measured by eye-tracker and analyzed the initial fixation direction and gaze duration time. Emotional change was measured by VAS. High-avoidance group indicated significantly longer gaze time to attractive stimuli than low-avoidance group did. And their feeling changed negatively when after presenting of appearance-related stimuli than before presenting. From these results, it was identified that high-avoidance group had different attention mechanism and were emotionally sensitive compared to low-avoidance group. In future studies, it will be helpful for preventing and treatment of eating disorder to measure various aspects of the cognitive mechanism and emotional change in avoidance coping strategy user.
