N2  - Abstract Normal individuals high and low in anxiety differ from each other in their attentional functioning in various ways. More specifically, they differ with respect to the content, capacity, distractibility and selectivity of attention. Any complete theoretical account of anxiety and attention will have to account for all four differences, although it is likely that these various aspects of attentional functioning are dynamically interrelated. Anxious patients with generalized anxiety disorder appear to differ from normal controls in similar ways, and there is evidence that some aspects at least of non-normal attentional functioning in anxious patients may reflect a vulnerability factor rather than merely an anxious mood state.<p />
