Depressive rumination and heart rate variability: A pilot study on the effect of biofeedback on rumination and its physiological concomitants

ObjectiveRecent studies suggest that lower resting heart rate variability (HRV) is associated with elevated vulnerability to depressive rumination. In this study, we tested whether increases in HRV after HRV-biofeedback training are accompanied by reductions in rumination levels.Materials and method...
