Medical - Psychology
English term or phrase: fearful faces
I need the equivalent for "fearful faces" in this context (especialized)

context: Depressed youth also exhibitperformance-based disruptions in cognitive processes, such as greater difficulty in remembering fearful faces as compared with controls, difficulty in inhibiting negative affect in response to distressing stimuli, and more global and less specific recall in tests of categorical autobiographic memory.

mi intento : La depresión en la juventud también presenta rendimientos basados en las interrupciones del proceso cognitivo, así como: mayor dificultad en recordar rostros horribles relacionados con la autoridad, dificultad para inhibir los efectos negativos en respuesta a los estímulos desestresantes, y recuerdos más generales y menos específicos en test de memoria de categoría autobiográfica .

Caras/Rostros temerosos


Explanation:
«fearful» significa temeroso. miedoso. https://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=fe...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (Fearful faces heighten the cortical representation of contextual threat)
«fearful face» se refiere en el contexto de la neurociencia, a los rostros de las personas a las cuales respondemos por que percibimos una amenaza que pueda haber afectado a esa otra persona y no como que esa misma me cause miedo.
