Abstract
119 students completed three cardiovascular recording periods and questionnaires on anger rumination, depression, and worry. Individuals high in both worry and depression had higher heart rates, lower rMSSD, and lower high frequency power. Worry and anger rumination interaction trends were also found on heart rate and rMSSD.
