If anyone has access to the actual study please post it! I just can’t pay the 35 dollars.

Also note who funded the study! The VA

Some of the comments I read on reddit about this study pointed out the fact that it was self-selected groups and therefore just correlational. It could be that the naturally more relaxed people gravitate to smoking more.

Introduction: great

Method: interesting, use of 2 x2 fractal design. M^2 Mandelbrot set would be a more accurate description. Maastricht Acute Stress Test (MAST) cool test. Very mean test. Torchered buy this type of test in phycology 101, volunteers studies. How is volunteering for your grade voluntary?

Cool conclusions. Well thought out. Not enough background on topic to judge bias.

Good news.

Now I read the reviews and learn.
