“…While ABMT research indicates that threat-related attention bias can influence anxiety levels, relative to placebo training (e.g. Britton, Dellarco, & Evans, 2017;Liu, Taber-Thomas, Fu, & Pérez-Edgar, 2018), it does not provide all of the necessary support for the causal relation -whether threat-related attention bias always impacts the emergence of anxiety problems (Pérez-Edgar & Hastings, 2018). Furthermore, the generated effect sizes in the child literature for threat-related attention bias and ABMT are smaller, and the patterns of threatrelated attention bias associated with anxiety are more mixed (Dudeney, Sharpe, & Hunt, 2015;Roy, Dennis, & Warner, 2015), relative to the adult literature.…”
