Method: Professional judgments have been provided by 56 participants through an experimental group (under stress) and a control group (without stress). Result: Accuracy was significantly higher in control group in all three judgments. Reaction times had difference significantly just in quasi-rational judgments. Conclusion: stressor lowered accuracy in the three modes of judgments in the experimental group. Noise stressor seemed to have increased reaction times in middle of judgment continuum
