摘要: Abstract Measurements of Type A behavior were related to cardiovascular (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate) neuroendocrine (urinary catecholamines Cortisol) reactivity in 30 male female preschool children during various active conditions at their mean ages 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5. Significant elevations physiological arousal occurred most for all variables except Cortisol. Playgroup leaders daycare centers filled out a Swedish version the scale measuring behavior, boys obtained significantly higher scores than girls. Whereas relatively consistent over time, however, was not stable individual characteristic, correlations between reached significance only 4 33 tests (one negative correlation) 1 case Correlations catecholamine did reach signific...
