Summary The purpose of this book is to evaluate the evidence concerning the so-called cardiovascular reactivity hypothesis. In its simplest form, this hypothesis states that excess cardiovascular reactivity to psychological stress may constitute a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. /// Three broad aims were established . . . to help organize this book: (a) to reexamine the conceptual, theoretical, and methodological basis for linking cardiovascular reactivity to disease; (b) to assess the current status of scientific research linking reactivity to disease; and (c) to propose an agenda for future research.
