The use of mental imagery in modifying interpretation bias was originally developed to test the hypothesis that imagery has more powerful effects on emotion than verbal processing (Holmes & Mathews, 2005).
These results offer support for the cognitive model of OCD, which emphasises the importance of appraisals of intrusive thoughts, and provide initial evidence that modifying interpretation biases in a high OC population may have downstream effects on emotional and physiological responses to OC stressors.
We hypothesized that a newly learned action-perception association would immediately modify interpretation of the sound during subsequent listening.
Using an interpretation training paradigm, previous research has demonstrated that it is possible to modify interpretation biases in socially anxious children and that trained interpretation bias affects important aspects of social anxiety (Vassilopoulos, Banerjee, & Prantzalou, 2009).
So under the modified interpretation, what used to be empty intervals now become gaps.
In spite of this, it seems quite likely that the axiomatizability conclusions in [8] may be extended to hold for the modified interpretation.
In our study, subjects had a considerably high Raven IQ performance, which may also modify interpretation.
Results were considered robust when ICER variations were not sufficient to modify interpretation of cost-effectiveness of pneumococcal immunization.
Should we completely forget about species trees in microbes, or is there still room for this concept, albeit with a modified interpretation?
In this case, under a strict interpretation, this hypothesis has been refuted; yet under a modified interpretation that accommodates new findings into a "statistical TOL", this hypothesis still awaits refutation and is even useful.
Cognitive style is an important target for intervention because although it is not possible to remove the stress and adversities in people's lives, it may be possible to modify interpretation of such adversities through cognitive style.
