Predicting daily procrastination behavior with heart rate variability: How to analyze within-subject design with interval scaled IV (and moderator)?

05 December 2020 1 2K Report

We are Master Students in Decision Science that just did a study to explore the relationship between heart rate variability (HRV) and procrastination (moderated by emotion regulated- ERQ), in a within-subject design.

The participants measured their morning baseline HRV and filled out the academic procrastination questionnaire in the evening for 7 days.

We are unsure how to analyze the data and which tests to report.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I am not sure what can happen when we measure morning baseline. HRV can for example being used as a predictor for ventricular tachycardia, specially when the patient has got ICD implanted. It might be possible to find some risk stratification, just prior to VT or VF.The socalled multipole method extracts information both in the frequency domain as well as time domain. The multipole method perform better than in traditional methods
