| Abstract | Processes of selective allocation of visual attention play a prominent role for survival, but also for development and maintenance of clinically relevant symptoms such as in anxiety or depression. Previous research provided evidence for increased attentional orienting and preoccupation with biologically relevant and mood-congruent stimuli, indicating tendencies of attentional biases. For instance, in anxiety, the visual-attentional system may be overly sensitive towards threat- and avoidant of reward cues. The research articles appearing in the E-book Behavioral and physiological bases of attentional biases: Paradigms, participants, and stimuli cover these topics and give a comprehensive overview on current directions and challenges in attentional bias research. Our driving motivation was to critically evaluate parameters that may directly or indirectly influence attentional biases and may thus be important for our understanding of attentional biases.Our first aim was to demonstrate the variety of experimental paradigms and outcome measures used. So far, the dot-probe task (MacLeod et al., 1986) was the gold standard in attentional bias research. This was also reflected in the contributions to this research topic. Relying solely on behavioral measures such as response accuracy, response times, and bias indices, Hakamata et al. (2014) applied a dot-probe task whereas Sagliano et al. (2014) and Wittekind et al. (2015) applied (modified) versions of the Posner task (Posner, 1... |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
