Experiment 1 showed that there was significant word attribute effect under the condition of invalid clues, and the average reaction time of offensive words was longer than the average reaction time of neutral words in fragile high self-esteem subjects. Experiment 2 showed that there was significant difference of gaze duration bias between frdgile high solf-esteem subjects and secure high self-esteem subjects. The conclusions of this study were as follows High school students with fragile high self-esteem had attentional bias for aggressive cues, and they had difficulty disengaging attention away from the aggressive cue.

Key words: fragile high self-esteem, secure high self-esteem, aggression, attentional bias.

摘要： 采用空间线索化任务、点探测任务并用眼动仪记录被试眼动指标,考察脆弱型高自尊高中生对攻击性线索注意加工特点。实验一结果显示：在无效线索提示条件下,脆弱型高自尊高中生攻击性词语反应时显著长于中性词语。实验二结果显示：脆弱型高自尊被试和安全型高自尊被试总注视时间偏向分数差异显著。研究表明,脆弱型高自尊高中生对攻击性线索存在注意解脱困难。
