Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating personality as a moderator of the association between life events stress and cardiovascular reactivity to acute stress
TL;DR: The association between life event stress and TPR vascular resistance was found to be moderated by conscientiousness, and conscientiousness at both the mean and 1SD above the mean buffered against the negative impact of life stress on TPR reactivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motivational orientation mediates the association between depression and cardiovascular reactivity to acute psychological stress
TL;DR: Depression was negatively associated with both systolic blood pressure and heart rate reactions to the stress task, such that those who reported higher depressive symptomology displayed a blunted response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type D personality and life event stress: the mediating effects of social support and negative social relationships
TL;DR: The results support recent findings in the Type D literature that have identified null effects of Type D when controlling for negative affectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive Bias of Interpretation in Type D Personality: Associations with Physiological Indices of Arousal
TL;DR: This study shows that the Type D individual not only reports greater discomfort but also experiences changes physiologically that support the role of the cardiovascular system as a potential psychosomatic pathway to disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type D personality and cardiovascular reactivity to acute stress: The mediating effects of social support and negative social relationships.
TL;DR: The predictive utility of Type D personality on cardiovascular reactivity above and beyond the individual effects of NA and SI is limited, and may vary depending on the cardiovascular parameter of focus.
