Abstract
To explore the effects of abdominal breathing and music relaxation on stress, and the differences due to personality. Ss were 72 undergraduates at Hebei Normal University. The subject’ physical stress reactivity was recorded in four phases. The results showed: The effects of different stress coping method on stress were different, and music relaxation was better. The effect of abdominal breathing was higher than natural, but it was difficult to master abdominal breathing. The heart rate of type-A behavior was higher than that of type-B behavior in baseline phase. The same was in the stress phase, but the difference extent was lower than the baseline phase. The effects of medi-variable and stress coping method were complex, and most exhibited in mutual ways. The gender difference of individual physical reactivity varied in different physical index. This indicated: The behavior pattern was inching variable, and had effect in natural or low stress level. The effect of behavior pattern fell significantly in higher stress level. The different stress coping methods fit different patterns of individuals.
