Journal ArticleDOI
The ‘Trier Social Stress Test’ – A Tool for Investigating Psychobiological Stress Responses in a Laboratory Setting
TL;DR: The results suggest that gender, genetics and nicotine consumption can influence the individual's stress responsiveness to psychological stress while personality traits showed no correlation with cortisol responses to TSST stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two formulas for computation of the area under the curve represent measures of total hormone concentration versus time-dependent change
TL;DR: It is shown that depending on which formula is used, different associations with other variables may emerge, and it is recommended to employ both formulas when analyzing data sets with repeated measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salivary cortisol in psychoneuroendocrine research: Recent developments and applications
TL;DR: An up-to-date overview of recent methodological developments, novel applications as well as a discussion of possible future applications of salivary cortisol determination are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Social support and oxytocin interact to suppress cortisol and subjective responses to psychosocial stress
TL;DR: Oxytocin seems to enhance the buffering effect of social support on stress responsiveness, concur with data from animal research suggesting an important role of oxytocin as an underlying biological mechanism for stress-protective effects of positive social interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of gender, menstrual cycle phase, and oral contraceptives on the activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.
TL;DR: Although men seem to have a stronger hypothalamic drive in response to stressful stimulation than women, differences in salivary-free cortisol levels, at least in part, may be explained by estradiol-induced changes in corticosteroid-binding protein levels.
