Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between attentional impulsivity levels and physiological and psychological stress responses of university students. 300 university students participated in the study. Four different data collection tools were used in the study: a personal information form, the Physiological Stress Response Inventory, and the Attentional Impulsivity Part of Barratt Impulsiveness Scale. We showed that attentional impulsivity of the participants is significantly related to both physiological stress responses (R2 = 0.04, F[1;267] = 11.45, p < 0.05) and psychological stress responses (R2 = 0.04, F[1;270] = 10.40, p < 0.05). At the same time, there is a significant negative association between physiological stress responses and psychological stress responses (r = -0.68). The attentional impulsivity is an important variable for explaining changes in both physiological and psychological stress responses. Physiological and psychological stress responses should be considered as separate kinds of stress responses in stress response measurements.
