Pittsburgh Stress Battery
Unreviewed
The Pittsburg Stress Battery is a standardized means of evaluating cardiovascular reactions as a response to acute stressors which have been linked to an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The original protocols vary but normally consisted of three tasks designed to maximize various psychological demands: a visual short term memory task (scanning), an accuracy evaluation (targeting), and a cognitive motor/reflex task (tracking).
