Developing the “Metacognition about Focused Attention in Social Anxiety
Questionnaire”
Abstract
Extant research has demonstrated that people with social anxiety exhibit
attentional bias grounded in their metacognitive strategies when they
are faced with internal and external threat stimuli. Based on this
finding, the current study developed the Metacognition about Focused
Attention in Social Anxiety Questionnaire (MFAQ) and investigated its
reliability and validity.
