Objectives Determining emotions, various types of aggression in people who have experienced a heart attack and is currently under the influence of chronic psychosocial stress of moderate intensity. Methods The examination was conducted on an outpatient basis on 14 subjects aged 51 to 72. age of male and female who experienced a heart attack. Applied: Azingerova aggression scale, PSQ stress test, Zung anxiety scale, Zung depression scale. Results The respondents show a stress reaction at the level of moderate stress (30-60) with dominant feelings of: fatigue, tension, dissatisfaction, overload.
