CONT

L'analyse démontre que l'auto-attention agit en interaction avec trois facteurs majeurs: l'anxiété, les déterminants physiologiques, l'expérience et le style de vie. Les auteurs proposent un modèle théorique selon lequel cette interaction peut situer un individu sur un continuum d'effets allant de très néfastes à très benéfiques, en fonction de sa prédisposition plus ou moins grande à l'auto-attention.
