Secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) in saliva and cardiovascular activity were measured at rest and in response to three film extracts varying in affective content. Subjective ratings of film impact confirmed a priori assumptions; the humorous film was rated as funnier than the other two films, the didactic film as more boring than the other two films, and the exciting film as more exciting and more stressful than the other two films. The films elicited distinct patterns of cardiovascular autonomic activity. The exciting film provoked changes characteristic of beta-adrenergic activation: increased systolic blood pressure (SBP); heart rate (HR); cardiac output (CO); and shortened pre-ejection period (PEP). The didactic film had little impact on cardiovascular activity. While an increase in total peripheral resistance (TPR) occurred, the humorous film was largely notable for a reduction in beta-adrenergic drive, as evidenced by reduced CO and a lengthening of PEP. In contrast to previous research reporting a rise in sIgA particular to humorous exposures, the sIgA secretion rate, although enhanced by exposure to the films, did not vary with film content.
