Abstract:
Current psychological tests and classic methods for recording and calculating autonomic correlates were used to study changes in students' psychophysiological indices during examinations. During this period, the students were found to develop emotional stress characterized by a complex of psychophysiological and autonomic changes. The nature and direction of the latter were determined by the individual and typological properties the examinees, by the significance of the emotional and stress situation of the autonomic nervous system and its responsiveness.

Introduction
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
