Abstracts

A total of 51 students with high blood pressure were compared with 59 controls. Factors examined were parental histories of hypertension, degree of obesity, cigarette smoking, exercise patterns, emotional reactivity, and number and self-perceived severity of stressful experiences. The results indicated that high blood pressure was strongly correlated with parental histories of hypertension and degree of obesity (p＜0.005 and p＜0.001 respectively), but not with cigarette smoking, exercise patterns, emotional reactivity, and stressful experiences.
