Right hemisphere functional cerebral systems have reliably been associated with sympathetic nervous system arousal and the perception of negative affective events. The goal of the current research was to provide additional support for the capacity model of hostility by examining changes attributable to functional cerebral systems within the right hemisphere using a dual concurrent task paradigm. To incorporate exposure to negative affective and right-lateralized motor stress using this approach, high and low hostile individuals completed a series of grip-strength tasks before and after hearing a recording of angry infant vocalizations. Results supported the capacity model in that high hostile individuals were unable to maintain regulatory control over right hemisphere activation as indicated through increased motor perseveration in the pre- and post-affective stress conditions, heightened systolic blood pressure (SBP) upon exposure to negative emotional sounds, and increased heart rate (HR) following stress. Conversely, low hostile individuals showed improved regulatory control over these regions as evidenced by reduced motor perseveration in the pre- and post-affective stress conditions, maintenance of SBP and reductions in HR following stress. The current data support the capacity model and extend its scope to include exposure to affective and right-lateralized motor stress.
