This study examined the effects of acceptance versus suppression and of anxiety sensitivity(AS) on changes in anxious responses to a hyperventilation challenge. The sample consisted of 36 undergraduates high in AS and 36 others low in AS, who we selected based on their respiratory sensation concern scores of the Korean version of the Anxiety Sensitivity Inventory-Revised. Half the participants in each AS group were randomly assigned to either acceptance or suppression conditions. Participants in the acceptance condition listened to a rationale for accepting their internal experiences, and those in the suppression condition listened to a rationale for suppressing their internal experiences. After undergoing each training corresponding to the treatment conditions, participants applied the instructions during and after the hyperventilation challenge. Participants in the acceptance condition decreased their anxiety responses on most measures to a greater extent than did those in the suppression condition. The superior efficacy of the acceptance condition as compared to the suppression condition was more prominent in the low AS group than in the high AS group on subjective anxiety and pulse rate measures. In addition, there were no differences between the two AS groups in terms of the acceptance condition's relative benefits on systolic and diastolic blood pressure. These results suggest that acceptance may be a useful intervention for decreasing anxious responses to a voluntary hyperventilation challenge in a sample of non-treatment seeking undergraduates. Finally, the implications of these results as well as the limitations of this study are discussed.
