Abstract

Attention bias appears clinically relevant in social anxiety disorder (SAD) and may be related to anhedonia, but the relationship between anhedonia and attention bias to threat in SAD has not been investigated. This study is the first to report a significant association of attention bias with social anhedonia in SAD.
