Measurement of Psychological and Heart Rate Reactivity to Stress in the Real World

Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 1992
The purpose of the present investigation was to develop and test an innovative methodology to assess stress reactivity in the real world. A portable microcomputer was programmed to administer two questionnaires eight times per day for 3 days in the field.

Influence of life stress on immunological reactivity to mild psychological stress.

Psychosomatic Medicine, 1994
This study investigated the effects of self-reported life stress and locus of control on reactivity of several immune parameters to a mild and short-lasting interpersonal stressor. Subjects were 86 male teachers aged 24 to 55 years. Immune reactivity was defined as changes in numbers of monocytes.

Stressful Military Training: Endocrine Reactivity, Performance, and Psychological Impact

Aviation, Space, and Environmental Medicine, 2007
We examined the responsiveness of both cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) to the stress of survival training in military men and evaluated relationships to performance, peritraumatic dissociation, and the subsequent impact of stressful events.Baseline salivary cortisol samples were self-collected by 19 men at 0900 and 1930 in a free ...

A comparison of psychologically-induced cardiovascular reactivity in laboratory and natural environments

Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 1988
This study focused on the possible role of heart rate reactivity in the development of essential hypertension in female subjects. Baseline heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, taken over a 6 week period, were used for comparison with the same measures taken during a laboratory session involving relaxation, cold pressor, mental arithmetic

Cardiovascular reactivity and the course of immune response to an acute psychological stressor.

Psychosomatic Medicine, 1994
This study evaluated the temporal nature of cellular immune responses, as well as the effects of cardiovascular reactivity on immune responses after exposure to an acute psychological stressor. Lymphocyte subsets and lymphocyte proliferative response to phytohemagglutinin were assessed at baseline and at 5 and 21 minutes after stressor onset in the ...
