Book ChapterDOI
Biological Bases of the Stress Response
TL;DR: This introductory chapter discusses the physiological stress research encompassing the origin of stressResearch, definitions of stress, stress research, and McEwen's concept of allostatic load, along with the major components of biological stress response system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic contributions to acute autonomic stress responsiveness in children.
Anett Mueller,Jana Strahler,Diana Armbruster,Klaus-Peter Lesch,Burkhard Brocke,Clemens Kirschbaum +5 more
TL;DR: These findings indicate that these two polymorphisms do indeed influence the ANS response to stress, and provide further evidence for the crucial role of genetic factors in the modulation of differences in the acute stress response during childhood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conditioned manipulation of natural killer (NK) cells in humans using a discriminative learning protocol
TL;DR: Previous observations of conditioned alteration of immune responses in humans are extended and indicate that the human organism might be able to react differentially to external stimuli, which have been associated with different immunological consequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Who is stressed? A pilot study of salivary cortisol and alpha-amylase concentrations in agoraphobic patients and their novice therapists undergoing in vivo exposure.
Sarah Schumacher,Sarah Schumacher,Katharina Gaudlitz,Jens Plag,Robert Miller,Clemens Kirschbaum,Lydia Fehm,Thomas Fydrich,Andreas Ströhle +8 more
TL;DR: It was demonstrated that physiological and subjective stress rather decrease during the intervention and that both groups rated exposure to be substantially successful, and another potential factor contributing to the under-usage of exposure treatment is conceivable and needs to be addressed in future research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hair cortisol and cognitive performance in working age adults.
TL;DR: Despite the study being well powered, long term cortisol exposure did not appear to be related to cognitive performance in this sample of working-age adults, suggesting that longterm cortisol exposure may be less relevant to cognition in younger and middle-aged adults than was previously thought.
