Acute Effects of Physical Exercise in Patients with Borderline Personality Disorder
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Borderline Personality Disorder
In brief
The aim of the proposed project is to investigate the effects of a single session of physical exercise on stress regulation, cognitive and emotional functioning, and associated neurophysiological processes (saliva and blood samples) in patients with borderline personality disorder. A further aim is to identify the optimal exercise intensity (moderate vs. high intensity). The investigatiors expect that acute exercise will lead to positive effects on behavioral and biomarker level.
