Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the impact of taking a continuous performance attention test on the physiological stress response in college students. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does taking an attention test cause participants to have increases in heart rate, blood pressure, and sweat?
* Does taking an attention test cause participants to have a decrease in heart rate variability?
* Are there relationships between participants' levels of anxiety, perceived stress, and mindfulness to their physiological changes?

Participants will

* Answer questionnaires about anxiety, stress, and mindfulness
* Have baseline measurements taken for blood pressure, sweat, and heart rate variability
* Take the PEBL Continuous Performance Task (a 14 minute attention test) while having the measurements listed above taken again
