Original publication

Recorded summary

Two experiments examined use of a breathing skill under a laboratory stressor. In the comparison experiment, trained participants showed higher HRV under stress. This is evidence of skill transfer to a task.

Recorded limitations

The training displayed the pulse trace. A study-defined stress score used rolling heart rate relative to baseline. HRV was an outcome.

Evidence and provenance
