  ABSTRACT: In this study, the improved masking detection paradigm was adopted to form stimulus picture pairs with pictures of different emotional faces and household items, to explore the attention preference characteristics of individuals with social anxiety under the threshold of consciousness. The results showed that the threshold of consciousness, under the condition of consistency, detects the target in the reaction on the negative emotions. Face images are much smaller than to detect the target in household items to the reaction time on the images, and also appear less than to detect the target in the reaction on the positive mood face images, namely high social anxiety group compared with low social anxiety, attention to negative emotional faces that exist. The results are consistent with the alertness model in the cognitive processing theory model of social anxiety.
