The Neuroendocrinology of Social Isolation (2014, background): “Analyses indicated that inpatients in the high lonely group had significantly higher levels of urinary cortisol than inpatients in the low lonely group, whereas the inpatients grouped in terms of high or low levels of recent stressful life events did not differ in urinary cortisol levels.”
A Pilot Study Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Mindfulness-Based Intervention on Cortisol Awakening Response and Health Outcomes among Law Enforcement Officers (2015, background): “It is important to note that post-traumatic stress disorder is characteristically associated with an attenuated CAR with a low first waking sample (Fries et al. 2009).”
Promoting Stress Management and Wellbeing in Educators: Feasibility and Efficacy of a School-Based Yoga and Mindfulness Intervention (2016, methodology): “Cultivating Awareness and Resilience in Education (CARE) is a CI that integrates emotion skills instruction, mindfulness practices, and compassion practices in five 6-h workshops over several months.”
The cortisol awakening response: more than a measure of HPA axis function. (2010, background): “This sensitivity to the stage of the circadian rhythm, rather than sleep characteristics (see Fries et al., 2009), is indicative of SCN–HPA axis input to S1.”
Stress and Health: A Review of Psychobiological Processes. (2020, background): “diminishing levels throughout the rest of the day (i.e., the diurnal cortisol slope; Adam et al., 2017; Clow, Hucklebridge, Stalder, Evans & Thorn, 2010; Fries et al., 2009; O’Connor et al., 2009; Pruessner et al., 1997).”
Social Psychophysiology for Social and Personality Psychology (2011, background): “Individual differences in demographic, health, and sleep factors have predicted the magnitude and trajectory of this response (e.g., Clow, Thorn, Evans & Hucklebridge, 2004; Fries et al., 2009).”
