Proposed Experimental Design for Measuring Anger

The previous post has an experimental diagram I proposed for measuring the effect of elicited anger and  recovery rate to normal status. Blood pressure measurements are used to calculate anger recall (dependent variable #1). Blood pressure is also used to measure metabolic recovery rate (dependent variable #2). Anger recall is defined as metabolic reactions resulting from recalling specific anger eliciting memories (i.e. fight with significant other). Neutral recall is the reference no-anger eliciting recall condition used for the control group (i.e. recall one of the 3 memorized facts taken from a short written passage). Subsequent postings will talk about the hypoteses (plural) and the statistical test that can be used in this experimental design.
