  • Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Increases Baroreflex Gain and Peak Expiratory Flow

    Paul M Lehrer, Evgeny Vaschillo et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2003

    OBJECTIVE: We evaluated heart rate variability biofeedback as a method for increasing vagal baroreflex gain and improving pulmonary function among 54 healthy adults. METHODS: We compared 10 sessions of biofeedback training with an uninstructed control. Cognitive and physiological effects were measured in four of the sessions. RESULTS: We found acute increases in low-frequency and total spectrum heart rate variability, and in vagal baroreflex gain…

  • Behavioral Task-Induced Bronchodilation in Asthma During Active and Passive Tasks

    Paul M Lehrer, Stuart M Hochron et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1996

    This study investigated pulmonary and autonomic reactions to active and passive behavioral laboratory tasks among asthmatic subjects. It also examined the relationship between airway irritability, as measured by the methacholine challenge test (MCT), and autonomic activity and reactivity to these tasks. Fifty-one asthmatic and 37 nonasthmatic subjects were exposed to psychological laboratory tasks involving either active (mental arithmetic and re…

  • Suppressor Effects in the Relations of Psychological Variables to Resting Blood Pressure

    Open AccessHarris S Goldstein, Robert Edelberg et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1991

    The role of suppressor effects in obscuring the relation of psychological variables and blood pressure was studied. Forty-five nonmedicated patients in a family practice rated themselves relative to their peers on a series of characteristics. Two of these, trapped and lonely, exhibited marked suppressor effects in their relationship with each other and resting blood pressure. Self-ratings of lonely exhibited a moderately strong positive associati…

  • Relationship of resting blood pressure and heart rate to experienced anger and expressed anger

    Harris S Goldstein, Robert Edelberg et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1988

    Forty-five nonmedicated subjects rated on analog scales the anger they experienced at home and at work (Experienced Anger). They also rated the extent to which others were aware of their anger (Expressed Anger) and the extent to which anger had been expressed in their families or origin (Family Expressed Anger). They were then physiologically monitored during a 2-min relaxation period that followed habituation to the laboratory setting. For the g…

  • Affective Orientation and Physiological Activity (GSR) in Small Peer Groups

    Howard B Kaplan, NEIL R BURCH et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1963

    The relationships that comprise small groups of peers present to the participants a web of interpersonal attractions, repulsions, and indifferences. In the present investigation it was hypothesized that, when a strong affective orientation (positive or negative) exists between members of a group, the affective response of these members to the pattern of interpersonal activity in the group will covary, and this covariation of affective response wi…
