Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio es analizar cómo la condición física modula diferentes respuestas psicofisiológicas al estrés en deportistas de élite y mujeres físicamente activas. Para ello, se evaluó la ansiedad y el estado de ánimo y se determinaron los niveles hormonales de testoterona y cortisol antes y después de la realización de una cicloergometría máxima. Tras ello, los sujetos realizaron el Test de Stroop, en el que se registró continuamente la frecuencia cardíaca y la actividad electrodérmica. Antes de las pruebas las deportistas de élite tenían peor estado de ánimo, menores valores cardiovasculares basales y menor ratio testosterona:cortisol que las físicamente activas. Además, mostraron mayor reactividad y peor recuperación electrodérmica en el Test de Stroop. La frecuencia cardíaca correlacionó en positivo con la testosterona basal y con el estado de ánimo negativo. Por tanto, la condición física modula las respuestas electrodérmicas al estrés agudo en mujeres.
