Key result
Cognitive reappraisal of affective images engendered adaptive hemodynamic profiles during anticipation and viewing compared to unregulated conditions.
Why the study?
Does cognitive reappraisal alter cardiovascular responses to affective stimuli in human participants?
Does cognitive reappraisal alter cardiovascular responses to affective stimuli in human participants?
Cognitive reappraisal of affective images produces distinct, adaptive hemodynamic profiles depending on the emotional valence and regulatory goal.

Reappraisal may attenuate vascular reactivity to negative affect; leaves open clinical cardiovascular relevance.
Павлов et al. (2013) studied this question. Cognitive reappraisal vs. Unregulated conditions (attending to images) was evaluated on Cardiovascular activity (total peripheral resistance, cardiac output, heart rate, mean blood pressure). Cognitive reappraisal of affective images engendered adaptive hemodynamic profiles during anticipation and viewing compared to unregulated conditions.
