Differences in cortisol awakening response on work days and weekends in women and men from the Whitehall II cohort.
TLDR
The results indicate that the cortisol awakening response occurs on both work and non-work days, but that anticipation of the working day is associated with an enhanced response.About:

Stress, eating and the reward system
Tanja C. Adam,Elissa S. Epel +1 more
TL;DR: A theoretical model of Reward Based Stress Eating is proposed, which emphasizes the role of cortisol and reward circuitry on motivating calorically dense food intake, and elucidating potential neuroendocrine mediators in the relationship between stress and eating.
Journal ArticleDOI
The awakening cortisol response: Methodological issues and significance
TL;DR: A review explores reasons for discrepancies in normative data including confounding factors such as gender, age, awakening time, light and participant adherence that suggest the awakening cortisol response is under a distinct regulatory influence different from the rest of the diurnal cortisol secretory cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing salivary cortisol in large-scale, epidemiological research.
Emma K. Adam,Meena Kumari +1 more
TL;DR: Examples of choices made, response rates obtained, and examples of results obtained from existing epidemiological cortisol studies are offered, as are suggestions for the modeling and interpretation of salivary cortisol data obtained in large-scale epidemiological research.

TL;DR: Consensus guidelines are presented on central aspects of CAR assessment, including objective control of sampling accuracy/adherence, participant instructions, covariate accounting, sampling protocols, quantification strategies as well as reporting and interpreting of CAR data.

Day-to-day dynamics of experience¿cortisol associations in a population-based sample of older adults
TL;DR: Day-to-day variations in cortisol diurnal rhythms were predicted from both prior-day and same-day experiences, to examine the temporal ordering of experience–cortisol associations in naturalistic environments and results are consistent with a dynamic and transactional function of cortisol.

Free Cortisol Levels after Awakening: A Reliable Biological Marker for the Assessment of Adrenocortical Activity
Jens C. Pruessner,Oliver T. Wolf,Dirk H. Hellhammer,Angelika Buske-Kirschbaum,K. von Auer,Silke Jobst,F. Kaspers,Clemens Kirschbaum +7 more
TL;DR: Early morning cortisol levels can be a reliable biological marker for the individual's adrenocortical activity when measured repeatedly with strict reference to the time of awakening, in contrast to single assessments at fixed times.
Journal ArticleDOI
Women, men, work, and family. An expansionist theory.
TL;DR: The authors attempt to fill this theoretical gap by reviewing the research literature and articulating an expansionist theory of gender, work, and family that includes four empirically derived and empirically testable principles better matched to today's realities.

Diurnal Cortisol Rhythm as a Predictor of Breast Cancer Survival
TL;DR: Patients with metastatic breast cancer whose diurnal cortisol rhythms were flattened or abnormal had earlier mortality, and suppression of NK cell count and NK function may be a mediator or a marker of more rapid disease progression.

Synthesis of a cortisol-biotin conjugate and evaluation as a tracer in an immunoassay for salivary cortisol measurement
TL;DR: A simple-to-perform synthesis yielded a conjugate suitable for use as a tracer in immunoassays for cortisol measurement and showed excellent correlation with a commercially available radioimmunoassay adapted for salivary cortisol measurement.

Burnout, perceived stress, and cortisol responses to awakening.
TL;DR: Sixty-six teachers from local public schools (42 womenand 24 men, mean age 42 6 5 years) were asked to sample saliva for cortisol analysis on 3 consecutive days as discussed by the authors.
