The dot-probe task evaluates the speed of responses to emotional or threatening stimuli versus neutral ones.The dot-probe task is widely used not only in cognitive psychology but also in fields like educational and clinical psychology. Essentially, this task evaluates the speed of responses to emotional or threatening stimuli versus neutral ones. A threatening stimulus triggers nervousness or anxiety. A positive emotional word triggers enjoyment or happiness. For instance, for someone with test anxiety, the word "exam" might induce unease. While some dot probe experiments employ words, others use images. Supported VR Device Types via SteamVR* Vive* Oculus* All other VR devices that use the SteamVR libraryBecause all creation and editing functionalities are accessible through the Unity Editor, no coding is required to create and run a custom questionnaire in a scene.For further reading, see:Putwain, D.W, Langdale, H.C., Woods, K.A., Nicholson, L.J.
