BCT Letter 155: BCT-PEACE Quantified — Cortisol Reduction and Optimal Room Geometry
Abstract
BCT predicts a j₁,₁ = 350 Hz acoustic environment reduces salivary cortisol by 2.51% (0.38 nmol/L) in high-stakes negotiating contexts. Measurable by standard ELISA assay, n=40, double-blind protocol proposed. BCT-optimal negotiating room: 6m × 11.1m × 3.3m derived from r_oct and r_tet alone. Predictions #194 and #195. Zero free parameters.
