Journal of Reproductive and Infant Psychology, 2021
Paternal stress is often assessed by maternal report and is posited to influence infant development indirectly by contributing to a mother's stress and experiences during pregnancy.

Alteration of the effects of caffeine by prenatal stress

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1989
We examined the effect of prenatal stress exposure on sensitivity to caffeine using behavioral and physiological measures. Pregnant rats were handled 5 minutes daily from the 14th to 21st day of gestation. Male offspring were tested when 60 days of age in a modified open field apparatus 30 and 90 minutes after injection with caffeine (0, 10, 30 mg/kg).

Prenatal Stress, Glucocorticoids and the Programming of the Brain

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 2001
AbstractA large body of human epidemiological data, as well as experimental studies, suggest that environmental factors operating early in life potently affect developing systems, permanently altering structure and function throughout life. This process with its persistent organizational effects has been called ‘programming’.

Glucocorticoids, prenatal stress and the programming of disease

Hormones and Behavior, 2011
An adverse foetal environment is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular, metabolic, neuroendocrine and psychological disorders in adulthood. Exposure to stress and its glucocorticoid hormone mediators may underpin this association. In humans and in animal models, prenatal stress, excess exogenous glucocorticoids or inhibition of 11β ...

The prenatal stress syndrome: Current status

Psychoneuroendocrinology, 1984
Exposure of female rats to stressors during the last week of pregnancy results in a selective feminization and demasculinization of adult sexual behaviors in the male offspring. No behavioral abnormalities are detectable in the female offspring, and reproductive morphological structures appear normal in both sexes.
