Abstract: The role of biofeedback and relaxation has been given widespread attention in the treatment of stress related disorders. Procedural and individual differences were investigated to determine main effects of treatment and personality and interactions between the two variables. The effects of the following four relaxation instructions, as independent variables, were compared: (a) Electromyography biofeedback (EMGBF), (b) Abbreviated Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR), (c) Abbreviated Autogening Training (AT), and (d) Self-Relaxation Control (SR).
