Vagal Tone: Predicting Psychophysiological Function under Conditions of Fear:
Alara Blofield
Hypothesis: individuals with higher HRV, a marker of higher vagal tone, would have more general feelings of anxiety, faster fear-induced stress reaction and recovery, greater facial expressivity, and better memory
