Associations between resting respiratory sinus arrhythmia, intraindividual reaction time variability, and trait positive affect.

TL;DR: Results showed that IIV under congruent, incongruent, and combined conditions obtained in the flanker task was associated with resting RSA and trait PA, and suggested that executive brain function indexed by IIV might be a central nervous correlate of trait PA.

TL;DR: Patients treated with procaine injections reported different psychophysiological outcomes contributing to the understanding of the mechanisms underlying NT, which should be separate from non-specific/placebo effects.

Explorations of Wellness and Resilience: A Yoga Intervention for Post-traumatic Stress
TL;DR: In this paper, a randomized control study was designed to supplement the current field of inquiry with a relatively large group of participants and mixed-method analysis of the data was performed to assess the effectiveness of Kundalini yoga in the treatment of post-traumatic stress.

High-Frequency Heart Rate Variability Linked to Affiliation with a New Group.
TL;DR: This study is the first to bridge a long history of research on ingroup favouritism to the relatively recent body ofResearch on cardiac vagal tone by uncovering a positive association between HF-HRV and affiliation with a novel group.

Sexual function in adults with a history of childhood maltreatment: mediating effects of self-reported autonomic reactivity
TL;DR: A chronic autonomic state that supports biobehavioral defense following abuse and trauma may contribute to adult sexual function problems, particularly in males and may point toward new treatment opportunities that target the autonomic nervous system.

Orienting in a defensive world: Mammalian modifications of our evolutionary heritage. A Polyvagal Theory
TL;DR: The Polyvagal Theory is introduced to explain the different functions of the two primary medullary source nuclei of the vagus and speculates that mammalian, but not reptilian, brainstem organization is characterized by a ventral vagal complex related to processes associated with attention, motion, emotion, and communication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroendocrine perspectives on social attachment and love
TL;DR: A review of existing behavioral and neuroendocrine perspectives on social attachment and love reveals a recurrent association between high levels of activity in the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis and the subsequent expression of social behaviors and attachments.
Journal ArticleDOI
The organization of noradrenergic pathways from the brainstem to the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei in the rat
TL;DR: The autoradiographic material, and additional double-labeling experiments, were used to identify and to characterize projections that interconnect the A1, A2 and A6 regions, as well as possible projections from these cell groups to the spinal cord.
