The role of disgust in faintness elicited by blood and injection stimuli

Page, Andrew C·2003·Journal of Anxiety Disorders

Abstract

To examine the role of disgust in blood-injection fear and faintness, 79 individuals high and low in disgust and distressed either more by blood or injections were exposed to both a blood slide and a needle slide. Self-reported faintness and systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured. High disgust individuals reported more faintness to both slides, but those who were more distressed by blood reported more faintness to the blood slide and those who were more distressed by needles reported more fear to the needle slide. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure assessments manifested a diphasic response. The diphasic response pattern was most evident among the high disgust subjects, who were more distressed by blood than injections. Results are discussed in terms of the relevance of disgust in the etiology of fear and faintness in blood-injury phobia.

  • Page (2003) observed patterns of BP adaptation during a 2-min blood or needle slide presentation that did not clearly culminate in a significant deactivation below baseline levels.

    “Similarly, Page (2003) observed patterns of BP adaptation during a 2-min blood or needle slide presentation that did not clearly culminate in a significant deactivation below baseline levels.”
  • Page observed more pronounced increases and subsequent decreases in blood pressure to presentations of blood and needle slides in blood- and injection-anxious students who were high versus low in disgust sensitivity, but without substantial decreases below initial levels, responses fell short of the most common criterion for a diphasic response.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
