• Measuring stress in wildlife: techniques for quantifying glucocorticoids (2011, methodology): “The high correlation between salivary GC levels and free-unbound serum GC levels remains high during the circadian cycle and under the many tests used to validate this technique such as ACTH stimulation and dexamethasone suppression tests (Dorn et al. 2007; Hellhammer et al. 2009).”
• Acute psychosocial stress: does the emotional stress response correspond with physiological responses? (2012, positive): “It is well acknowledged that acute psychological distress triggers the hypothalamic—pituitary—adrenal axis (HPA) and the release of cortisol, which is considered as the main biomarker in stress research (Hellhammer et al., 2009).”
• Towards an automatic early stress recognition system for office environments based on multimodal measurements: A review (2016, background): “Nevertheless, cortisol levels measured in blood can offer better inter-individual differences [35].”
• A simple and compact smartphone accessory for quantitative chemiluminescence-based lateral flow immunoassay for salivary cortisol detection. (2015, background): “We demonstrated the performance of the system by quantitative detection of salivary cortisol, which is considered a biomarker of stress, anxiety, and depression (Hellhammer et al., 2009; Tlili et al., 2011).”
• Stress reactivity to co-rumination in young women’s friendships: Cortisol, alpha-amylase, and negative affect focus (2011, result): “Focusing on negative affect was predictive of cortisol levels in the Problem Talk group and not in the Control group, suggesting that co-rumination may need to involve personal problems to elicit the HPA response, consistent with previous findings that social stressors are likely to elicit cortisol ”
• Mathematics Anxiety: What Have We Learned in 60 Years? (2016, background): “Attitudes to mathematics, even negative attitudes, cannot be equated with mathematics anxiety, as the former are based on motivational and cognitive factors, while anxiety is a specifically emotional factor.”
• The cortisol awakening response: more than a measure of HPA axis function. (2010, background): “However, the preawakening rise in ACTH was steeper than the respective rise in cortisol (reported in Hellhammer et al., 2009) suggesting that there may be a pre-awakening dissociation between the secretion of these two hormones, as previously described in rodent studies.”
