Lab Report - Starting References (5 items)

Why do we respond so differently? Reviewing determinants of human salivary cortisol responses to challenge - B.M. Kudielka, D.H. Hellhammer, Stefan Wüst, 2009 Article | Prescribed | This reference is a review paper. The authors didn’t conduct an experiment, but they have reviewed the individual physiological and psychological factors that are involved in the cortisol stress response. This paper will be helpful in giving a broad introduction to the topic.

Trait mindfulness modulates neuroendocrine and affective responses to social evaluative threat - K.W. Brown, N. Weinstein, J.D. Creswell, 2012 Article | Prescribed | This reference is an experimental paper. The authors conducted a study which is very simuliar to the one we will conduct in PSY1BNB, so it is really important. As a stressor, these authors used a task called the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST). Is this similar or different to the stressor that we will use?

Dispositional mindfulness predicts cortisol, cardiovascular, and psychological stress responses in adolescence - Rachel G. Lucas-Thompson, Reagan L. Miller, Natasha S. Seiter, Mark A. Prince, 2019-12 Article

Salivary cortisol as a biomarker in stress research - D.H. Hellhammer, S. Wüst, B.M. Kudielka, 2009 Article | Prescribed | This is another review paper. It contains background information about using salivary cortisol as a measure of the stress reponse. Scan through the reference list; are there papers that look like they might help in our own experiment?

The Benefits of Being Present: Mindfulness and Its Role in Psychological Well-Being - 2003 Article | Recommended | This reference is for your interest only. We will use the mindfulness scale from this article, so you will need to include this as a reference in your report, but is not particularly relevant to the cortisol stress response. However, feel free to read this paper if you are particularly interested in mindfulness!
