Abstract
There is not much known yet about different feedback forms in public speaking with regard to both physiological and self-perceived stress. The current study investigated this matter via a convenience sample of psychology students and acquaintances (N= 27, M age= 19.50 years, 74% female). Participants prepared and presented a presentation to either a supportive or unsupportive audience. During the whole experiment heart rate was being recorded to measure physiological stress and the Self-Assessment Manikin was filled in four times to measure self-perceived stress. According to the results, self-perceived stress measurements were not correlating with heart rate measurements. Furthermore, there was no effect found for the influence of feedback on self-perceived stress while presenting. The results suggest that different feedback forms did significantly influence physiological stress in public speaking, even though the study had a small power. However, future research has to look into psychological measurements of stress regarding feedback in public speaking.
