Pace variation and control of work pace as related to cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, and subjective responses
TLDR
The findings of two studies of paced and self-paced arithmetic performance give partial support to the suggestion that personal control may attenuate sympathoadrenal activation and cardiovascular reactions.Citations

Acute stressors and cortisol responses: a theoretical integration and synthesis of laboratory research.
TL;DR: Motivated performance tasks elicited cortisol responses if they were uncontrollable or characterized by social-evaluative threat (task performance could be negatively judged by others), when methodological factors and other stressor characteristics were controlled for.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of mental stress on heart rate variability and blood pressure during computer work
TL;DR: It is suggested that heart rate-derived variables reflect a central pathway in cardiovascular control mechanisms (“central command”), while the blood pressure response is more influenced by local conditions in the working muscles that partly mask the effect of changes in mental workloads.

Sleep and emotion regulation: An organizing, integrative review
Cara A. Palmer,Candice A. Alfano +1 more
TL;DR: The current review utilizes the process model of emotion regulation as an organizing framework for examining the impact of sleep upon various aspects of emotional experiences and calls for experimental research designed to clearly explicate which points in the emotion regulation process appear most vulnerable to sleep loss.

Building healthy workplaces: What we know so far.
E. Kevin Kelloway,Arla Day +1 more
TL;DR: Work is associated with mental health and mental wellbeing as mentioned in this paper, and mental health is a potential health resource that both may protect us and assist in our recovery from psychological ill-health.

Cardiovascular and endocrine responses to experimental stress: Effects of mental effort and controllability
Madelon L. Peters,G. L. R. Godaert,Rudy E. Ballieux,Marja Van Vliet,Jacques J. Willemsen,Fred C.G.J. Sweep,Cobi Jacoba Johanna Heijnen +6 more
TL;DR: Investigating the unique and interactive effects of the controllability of a task and mental effort required by that task on cardiovascular and endocrine reactivity, when both were manipulated independently found having control seems to be most beneficial in high effort situations, at least with respect to sympathetic reactivity.

Determination of plasma catecholamines by high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection: comparison with a radioenzymatic method.
TL;DR: High performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection has been compared to a radioenzymatic method for the determination of plasma catecholamines and showed an excellent agreement between the methods.
