To identify neurological characteristics in accordance with anxiety under the interaction between emotion and attention, this\nstudy examines major ERP components when participants identify a target number by inhibiting task-irrelevant emotional face\ndistractors. Experiments were conducted once per day at the same time for two days with 19 healthy adult men and women as\nrequired to study emotion-attention interaction. In this study, a variety of ERP components such as P100, N200, and P300 during\nexperiment are significant.The amplitude and latency of the N200 component reflect both state and trait anxiety at all positions.\nThis characteristic specially is prominently featured at Cz. Also, the latency of the late P300 component reflects the trait anxiety\nrather than state anxiety.The result of this study can help our understanding of the neurological responses related to anxiety during\nattentional control.
