摘要: Twenty patients with dental anxiety were investigated while seated in a chair clinic. Heart rate (HR), heart variability (HRV), and skin conductance level (SCL) recorded the exposed to scenes of treatment as well Stroop attentional task. Results showed an bias longer manual reaction times (RT's) incongruent compared congruent color words threat neutral words. Longer RT's found low HRV high patients. Furthermore, all increase HR during exposure task baseline. The decrease did not differ between Moreover, return baseline levels recovery period.
