Reactivity7
  • Life event stress has been associated with blunted cardiovascular reactivity to acute psychological stress. (stir.ac.uk)
  • However, recent studies have suggested that blunted reactivity to stress only arises when the laboratory tasks are not personally salient to the individual. (stir.ac.uk)
  • We re-analyzed data from 136 healthy young adults where we had previously reported a negative association between life event stress and cardiovascular reactivity to two combined stressors. (stir.ac.uk)
  • The reanalyses examined reactivity to the verbal mental arithmetic (personally non-salient) and speech (personally salient) tasks separately and found that life event stress was negatively associated with diastolic blood pressure reactivity, to both the personally non-salient, β = −.20, p = .023, and personally salient stressors, β = −.24, p = .004. (stir.ac.uk)
  • Life event stress was negatively associated with systolic blood pressure reactivity to the personally salient stressor only, β = −.20, p = .021, and was not associated with heart rate reactivity. (stir.ac.uk)
  • This study provides evidence against the argument that blunted reactivity to stress emerges as a result of stressor context, with findings indicating that low reactors show lower reactivity to both personally salient and personally non-salient stress. (stir.ac.uk)
