FYI, they are talking about "anxious" as in personality, not anxious because of an environmental factor.
Also, the tldr is they played a augmented reality game and, "They were more likely to correctly shoot people with guns and had fewer misses when aiming at them. They also took fewer shots at people holding non-gun objects." But the study is paywalled and I wonder who made shots more quickly, which seems an important factor in an active shooter situation.

Why? Is the target themselves?
