Abstract
Mental stress testing involves assessing physiological responses in a laboratory setting before, during, and after exposure to mental stressors. Stressors elicit certain physiological response patterns. Areas of inquiry include response reproducibility across stressors and testing sessions, generalizability of laboratory responses to the field, predictability of proximal medical endpoints, and genetic contributions. © 2007
