| Individual markers of coagulation activity will be determined from the blood samples. Pulse rates will be measured analogously and an anxiety/fear score will be collected from each student for both movies. In addition, we will score (after the second movie) if students enjoy to watch fearful or dull movies, and if they have seen the presented movies before. | — |
