Heart rate and heart rate variability measurement. AVNN is the average of RR interval, and SDNN is the standard deviation of RR. There was a difference in heart rate, max heart rate and AVNN for overall participants and for seniors, between stress and neutral scenarios. For juniors, there was a difference only for SDNN. *p < 0.01 # p < 0.0001. HRV is primarily dependent on the parasympathetic autonomic nervous system. Overall, there was a lower HRV between the 2 scenarios with the acceleration of HR, a SDNN and AVNN lower values. Statistical analysis shows significant results in different HRV parameter but not always at the same time
