摘要:We examined the relationship between cardiovascular responder types and love styles. Cardiovascular responder types were measured as reactivity to a social speech task. Measures included heart rate (HR), systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP, respectively), pre-ejection period (PEP), and baroreceptor sensitivity (BRS). Love styles were measured using the 2nd version of Lee’s Type Scale; a questionnaire developed based on Lee’s color theory. Analyses revealed that Eros (physically attracted love) score was related to HR, SBP, and BRS reactivity, and that Mania (obsessive and jealous love) score was related to HR and BRS reactivity. These results suggest that passionate love style, including Eros and Mania, is associated with cardiovascular responder types.
