Study Notes
Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease
- Family history increases the risk of cardiovascular disease
- Race and gender are also risk factors, with heart disease being the biggest cause of death in women
- White women are protected until menopause, while black women are at greater risk even before menopause
Psychological Risk Factors
- Hostility and anger are the greatest risk factors for heart disease
- Anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflicts also contribute to the risk
- Behavioural and physical factors, such as diet and physical inactivity, also play a role
- Environmental factors include psychosocial stress, physical stress, and dietary factors
Psychophysiological Reactivity Model
- Exposure to stress leads to physiological responses, which can result in disease if repeated
- The model consists of three stages: exposure to stress, physiological response, and disease
- The rate of recovery from stress may be more important than the stress response itself
Stress Study
- Participants were selected based on their hostility levels, as measured by BDHI scores
- The study involved a 1-hour stress task, during which physiological responses were recorded
- The study found that high hostility and low hostility groups had similar systolic blood pressure and cardiac output at rest
- The math task used in the study did not effectively tap into the concept of hostility
- Interpersonal conflict may be a more effective way to induce anger in participants
