Graphic representation of results. Top panel: Static trial plots (differences calculated as Near minus Far): (a) EEG Time Frequency difference plot shows the Static differences across the time of the trial and different frequencies (2–30 Hz); (b) EEG alpha-band (8–13 Hz) power over time for Near and Far; (c) Scatterplot of association between participants’ Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation scores and the alpha power Static differences (all time windows averaged); Bottom panel: Dynamic trial plots (differences calculated as Approach minus Recede): (d) Time Frequency difference plot shows the Dynamic differences across the distance of the trial and different frequencies (2–30 Hz); e) EEG alpha-band (8–13 Hz) power over distance for Approach and Recede; (f) Scatterplots of association between participants’ Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation score and the alpha power Dynamic differences (all distance windows averaged).
