Description
Summary:"Anxiety is an emotion that appears early in childhood and follows a typical developmental course. This book provides a comprehensive overview of relevant theory and research related to information processing biases and its contribution to elevated levels of anxiety in children and adolescents." "Focusing on theoretical and research issues, the book highlights how different researchers have explored diverse aspects of information processing, such as selective attention, inhibition and interpretation, in anxious children and adolescents. It further investigates the origin and treatment of information processing biases within the broader context of developmental psychopathology, genetics, learning and the family."--Jacket.
