The dataset in this repository includes a subset of electrocardiogram, electrodermal, torso posture and activity, wrist activity, and leg activity measures collected from a high- and low-anxiety group during a bug-phobic and social anxiety experience. Raw files of audio data are not made available to protect the anonymity of the participants, but can be made available upon request subject to ethics agreements.
