Vasoconstriction and Breathing
Description
A binary data on the neural constriction of vasculature. Three test persons inhaled a certain amount of air with different rates. In some cases a vasoconstriction occurred at their skin. The objective of the study was to indicate a correlation between breathing and vasoconstriction. The test persons repeated the test 9, 8, 22 times, making a total of 39 observations.
Format
A data frame with 39 observations on the following 3 variables: - vol: amount of air - rate: rate of breathing - vaso: condition of vasculature: no vasoconstriction = 1, vasoconstriction = 2
