标题:COMPUTER-MEDIATED COMMUNICATION AND TIME PRESSURE INDUCE HIGHER CARDIOVASCULAR RESPONSES IN THE PREPARATORY AND EXECUTION PHASES OF COOPERATIVE TASKS
摘要:The cardiovascular (CV) response to social challenge and stress is associated with the etiology of cardiovascular diseases. New ways of communication, time pressure and different types of information are common in our society. In this study, the cardiovascular response to two different tasks (open vs. closed information) was examined employing different communication channels (computer-mediated vs. face-to-face) and with different pace control (self vs. external). Our results indicate that there was a higher CV response in the computer-mediated condition, on the closed information task and in the externally paced condition. These role of these factors should be considered when studying the consequences of social stress and their underlying mechanisms.
