Morning and evening types: stress-related personality aspects

TL;DR: In this paper, a group of 232 adults were administered the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire to assess their individual circadian typology and a battery of questionnaires of personality and psychological and psychosomatic disorders (Beck Depression Inventory; Bortner Type A Scale; Eysenck Personality Questionnaire; Jenkins Activity Survey; Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire, Strelau Temperament Inventory).

Trait anxiety, stress and the menstrual cycle: Effects on Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices test

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of time-pressure stress on Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices performance in 64 low and 64 high-trait anxious female subjects, tested either during premenstruation or menstruation, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal and monthly variations of temperature and self-reported activation in relation to sex and circadian typology

TL;DR: In this article, a stress-arousal check list was used to assess the stress and self-reported activation of 20 subjects for thirty days in 20 subjects (females and males, morning and evening types).
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrodermal activity in menstrual cycle phases : a comparison of within- and between-subjects designs

TL;DR: Electrodermal activity (EDA) changes in menstrual cycle were studied in two experiments and there were significant increases in skin conductance response (SCR) magnitude, skin Conductance level, SCR habituation rate, and SCR amplitude to stimulus change, in relation to menstrual, luteal, and premenstrual phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Menstrual cycle, arousal-induction, and intelligence test performance.

TL;DR: A crossover interactive effect of menstrual phase and stress-induced arousal was found on performance of the Hundal test, suggesting that performance of subjects who were tested during the midcycle phase was impaired under the time-pressure instructions condition.

Measurement of Activation through Self-Report

TL;DR: Self-report is suggested as an alternative measurement form, and data from several studies are presented indicating the validity of the Activation-Deactivation Adjective Check List (AD-ACL), an objective self-report measure of transient levels of activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a Psychological Theory of Multidimensional Activation (Arousal)

TL;DR: In this article, a psychological model with two activation dimensions and a single continuum of energy expenditure is proposed, where one dimension ranges from subjectively defined feelings of energy and vigor to the opposite feelings of sleepiness and tiredness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factor Analytic and Reliability Studies on the Activation-Deactivation Adjective Check List:

TL;DR: Two factor analytic studies were conducted on a revised long form and a short form of the Activation-Deactivation Adjective Check List, a self-report test of transitory activation or arousal states, which suggests two general bipolar activation dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes with the menstrual cycle in psychophysiological and self-report measures of activation.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the levels of activation in both the central nervous system and in the autonomic nervous system are different in the two phases of the menstrual cycle.
