5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The present study will examine the relationship between metabolically excessive cardiovascular and neural responses to acute psychological stress using a cross-sectional approach.
Detailed Description
All participants in this study will undergo an acute psychological stress paradigm, there will be no randomization or assignment since all participants will complete the same tasks. Sample size was calculated based off of recent papers examining multivariate pattern brain responses predicting cardiovascular responses to stress.
