Core Tip This eye-tracking study reveals a threat-related attentional bias in individuals with high looming cognitive style (LCS). High LCS individuals exhibited a vigilance-avoidance pattern characterized by initial vigilance toward threat stimuli, followed by attentional avoidance, alongside sustained attentional maintenance to threat. Paradoxically, they also showed prolonged overall attention to threat. This temporal dissociation between early vigilance and later avoidance, captured via precise eye-movement metrics, refines the Looming Vulnerability Model and provides crucial empirical evidence on the dynamic attentional mechanisms underlying threat perception in cognitive vulnerability.
