Abstract

This study examined the effects of long-term exercise and immediate exercise on stress induced by a cold-pressor task. Accuracy on a financial decision-making task and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) were recorded. No statistically significant effects were observed across exercise conditions or in blood pressure changes between groups.
