| Sumario: | Typical measures of laboratory reactivity (i.e. difference between control and stress) and recovery (i.e. difference between stress and post‐stress) were compared with a conventional measure of daily‐life reactivity, best known as event‐related stress. Fifty‐three healthy individuals between 19 and 35 years of age took part in a laboratory session where stress was induced using the repeated Montreal Imaging Stress Task and 8 days of experience sampling method. Measures of negative affect, heart rate (HR), HR variability, and skin conductance level were collected. Findings show no strong associations between laboratory and daily life measures with the exception of laboratory affective recovery and daily life reactivity. Findings and their implications are discussed.
