Cardiovascular reactivity, the responsiveness of the cardiovascular system to react to stress differs between people. Psychological or physical stress can raise blood pressure, heart rate etc and lead to [[[physiological arousal]] in some people more than others. Such stress reactions can have long term health consequences if they persist.
