  • Title: Cardiovascular reactivity during mental stress testing, the type A interview, and exercise testing in healthy male subjects.
    Author: Rüddel H, Langewitz W, Neus H, Schiebener A, Schmieder R, Schulte W.
    Journal: Act Nerv Super (Praha); 1982; Suppl 3(Pt 2):268-73. PubMed ID: 7183088.
    Abstract:
    We compared the blood pressure (BP) of 61 healthy male Ss during mental arithmetic plus noise, physical exercise testing and the Type A interview. A consistent association between personality characteristics and cardiovascular reactivity was not found. There was a consistent correlation between systolic BP reactivity during mental arithmetic and the Type A interview. Mental arithmetic and exercise testing correlated significantly for middle aged men. No correlation of BP was found between the Type A interview and exercise testing.
