Research
Built on forty-two peer-reviewed sources.
HeartCore's detection model draws on the established literature on heart rate variability, prefrontal regulation, just-in-time adaptive interventions, and decision-making under acute stress. We are not inventing a physiology — we are translating thirty years of it into a wearable form that fits an executive's day.
What we draw on
- 01HRV biofeedback and emotional regulation
- 02Prefrontal-vagal coupling under acute stress
- 03Just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAI)
- 04Wearable stress detection in field settings
- 05Resting HRV and cognitive failure
- 06Acute-stress effects on decision-making
Reading list (coming soon)
A curated bibliography with our reading notes — organized by relevance to the detection model, intervention design, and reflection loop — is in preparation. For early access or to discuss the science, write to heartcore@zwirs.co.
