We then examined changes over time in eye blink rate as the task became increasingly difficult. We found that children with low reported internalizing behaviors and high effortful control showed significant decreases in eye blink rate as the task progressed.
Excited to share my final dissertation paper! Motivated by work suggesting that dopaminergic activity may be a mechanism linking anxiety and effortful control, in a sample of school-age children we (tediously) counted eye blinks during the βTower of Patienceβ task as a proxy of dopaminergic activity
