- •
The trait of behavioral inhibition (BI) can confer risk for anxiety disorders.
- •
Here, we developed a simple behavioral task to probe BI.
- •
Subjects guided an avatar through onscreen scenarios involving social interaction.
- •
Task performance correlated strongly with BI score assessed via questionnaire.
- •
Virtual environments may offer a useful format for personality assessment.
