In anxiaty, the main mechanism, is of attention distraction<ref>9, 19, 32</ref>.It is because of law rostral ACC acitivity (thus inability to concntrate) and reduced recurtment of laterl PFC (used for high control)<ref>[http://bishoplab.berkeley.edu/bishopnn.pdf S Bishop, J Duncan, M Brett, AD Lawrence, Prefrontal cortical function and anxiety: controlling attention to threat-related stimuli, Nature neuroscience, 2004]</ref>. It was found that in highy enxialty (in clinical population) the anxities showed less activation of the rosteral ACC, thus there are less able to disengage from the fear cause, and thus elevate fear levels'''[http://web.uvic.ca/~lccl/sites/default/files/2011_HolroydYeung.pdf Must read!]'''
