Abstract
⺠Low cardiac vagal control is associated with anxiety. ⺠Cardiac vagal control is examined as a predictor of anxiety in breast cancer. ⺠Participants with higher baseline RSA evidence a decrease in anxiety. ⺠Participants with lower baseline RSA evidence an increase in anxiety. ⺠Cardiac vagal control may facilitate modulation of anxiety in coping with illness.
