Evidence for the Absence of Attentional Biases Towards Stigma- and Disease-related Information in Atopic Dermatitis

Contrary to the attentional hypothesis, individuals with atopic dermatitis did not preferentially allocate attention to disease- or stigma-related cues. By combining preregistration, frequentist statistics, and Bayesian inference, this work provides robust evidence that is incompatible with the assumption of attentional hypervigilance in atopic dermatitis.
