Abstract
In a group of 49 young girls, the Stroop emotional task was used to study the effect of irrelevant information on attention bias and cognitive control of attention, depending on the severity of autonomic dysfunction (severe, moderate, absence). The subjects performed the task of identifying facial expressions of anger, fear and disgust, which was difficult by superimposing on the faces of words – names of emotions, congruent or incongruent to the presented facial expression. The results showed that autonomic dysfunction worsens attention control, makes it difficult to suppress irrelevant verbal information, and leads to an attention bias, quantified by the Stroop effect value. The most pronounced Stroop effect was found in the group of young girls with severe autonomic dysfunction. Among the negative emotions used in the work, disgust turned out to be the most effective for identifying the relationship between autonomic dysfunction and attention bias.
