This study adopted the Incentive Delay (ID) paradigm and compared the influence of reward and punishment expectations on the cognitive responses of individuals with high and low social anxiety in four situations (stimuli presented randomly + monetary feedback, stimuli presented randomly + social feedback, stimuli presented in blocks + monetary feedback, stimuli presented in blocks + social feedback). The results showed that for individuals with high social anxiety, when the presentation mode of stimuli changed from random to blocked, the facilitating effect of reward expectations on cognitive responses disappeared, while the facilitating effect of punishment expectations on cognitive responses remained. This result was present in both monetary and social feedback tasks.
