Anxiety and the Behavioural Inhibition System Philip J. Corr
University of East Anglia, UKAnxiety has causal roots in evolutionary, genetic, psychophysiological, cognitive and behavioural mechanisms; and its basic phenomenology is subjective angst. Its blend of automatic and controlled (including conscious) processing poses a problem for the development of an integrative model that does justice to prepotent behaviours as well as higher-level processes. This problem is addressed from the perspective of an updated behavioural inhibition system (BIS), which is responsible for detecting and resolving goal conflict of all kinds, especially those between the fight-flight-freeze system (FFFS) and the behavioural approach system (BAS). The updated BIS is distributed over multiple neural processes, from limbic structures (especially the hippocampus and amygdala) to the prefrontal cortex; and now it is assigned a role in the generation of controlled processing, including the contents of conscious awareness. This talk summarises the updated BIS and outlines the problems entailed by the multi-levelled interplay of automatic and controlled processes before sketching an integrative model of anxiety, the general form of which may hold implications for broader domains of psychology.
