摘要：Abstract In this preliminary study, we investigated the patterns of concordance between both implicit and explicit, and between cognitive and behavioral facets of spider fear. Volunteer participants (n =404) completed on-line two explicit and two implicit measures of spider fear presented in random order. It appears that individuals with high implicit avoidance motivation tend to explicitly underreport their avoidance level, with (only) females and highly aroused participants displaying high correlations between implicit and explicit measures of avoidance. The results of our pilot study might represent a fruitful fist step in clarifying the complex pattern of relationships in spider fear.
