“…This elevated anxiety sensitivity could be a mediating factor, since it makes SP patients more vulnerable to be worried about their bodily symptoms (even when in the absence of physiological differences compared to HC) and therefore intensifies self-reported anxiety. Moreover, Thibodeau and colleagues recently found that in mostly healthy participants (without a DSM-IV diagnosis) anxiety sensitivity and trait social anxiety were correlated with perceived arousal and state anxiety, but not with objective arousal during three tasks (speech, typing task and hyperventilation) [56].…”

BackgroundResearch on the biopsychological background of social phobia (SP) is scarce and inconsistent. We investigated endocrine and autonomic markers along with subjective responses to a standardized stress situation (Trier Social Stress Test, TSST) in SP patients and healthy controls (HC).MethodsWe examined 88 patients with the primary diagnosis of SP as well as 78 age and sex comparable HCs with the TSST. Blood and saliva samples were obtained before and after the TSST for the assessment of salivary cortisol, plasma cortisol, salivary alpha-amylase (sAA), and prolactin. Heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) were recorded continuously. Scalp-near hair samples were collected for the assessment of long-term cortisol secretion. The self-reported stress response was measured with different state and trait scales.ResultsWhile self-reported anxiety was elevated in SP before, during, immediately after, and one week after the TSST, no significant differences in biological stress responses were observed between SP and HC. There was a trend for SP to show higher baseline stress markers. Also long-term cortisol deposition in hair remained unaltered.ConclusionsOur results suggest that the excessive self-reported stress in SP is not reflected by a respective biological stress response. Patients with SP apparently show neither an extreme form of focused fear reactivity nor excessive defensive impairment.

“…ASCC may also influence suicidal ideation indirectly through the development and maintenance of overarousal, an important predictor of suicide (Ribeiro et al, 2013). Anxiety sensitivity more generally has been associated with exaggerated perceived arousal in a number of studies (e.g., Asmundson et al, 1994;Carter et al, 2009;Conrod, 2006;Thibodeau et al, 2012).…”

“…Dzięki temu można selektywnie analizować aktywność tych dwóch systemów odpowiedzi stresowej. Ma to szczególne znaczenie, ponieważ subiektywnie odczuwane pobudzenie fizjologiczne w dużym stopniu zależy od osobowości, w przeciwieństwie do obiektywnych miar pobudzenia fizjologicznego (Thibodeau, Gómez-Pérez, Asmundson, 2012). Powoduje to różnice w wykrywanych poziomach poszczególnych neurohormonów (McClelland i in., 1987).…”

“…Istnieje jednak możli-wość analizy subiektywnie odczuwanego pobudzenia fizjologicznego, przybliża-jąc ten wskaźnik do subiektywnie odczuwanego stresu (Revelle, Loftus, 2014). Można w tym celu wykorzystywać skale analogowe lub ankiety (Thibodeau, Gómez-Pérez, Asmundson, 2012). Co ciekawe, subiektywnie odczuwane pobudzenie fizjologiczne jest nawet wyżej skorelowane z wieloma obiektywnymi jego miarami niż one same między sobą (Thayer, 1989).…”

Abstrakt. By ustalić przydatność katecholamin w ślinie do badania stresu, pobrano próbki od 30 studentów przed egzaminem oraz w dniu pozbawionym stresorów. Następnie aby zbadać wpływ wysiłku poznawczego na poziomy katecholamin, przebadano 31 ochotników, którzy uczestniczyli w dwóch spotkaniach poświęconych realizacji różnych testów poznawczych. Za pomocą HPLC-ED zmierzono poziomy noradrenaliny, dopaminy i adrenaliny w ślinie. W grupie przed egzaminem zaobserwowano wyłącznie obniżony poziom dopaminy w porównaniu do dnia nieobciążonego stresorami. W drugiej grupie wysiłek poznawczy wywołał podwyższenie poziomów wszystkich trzech katecholamin. Zważywszy na niejednoznaczne wyniki z dotychczasowych badań wydaje się, iż adrenalina i noradrenalina w ślinie mogą być stosowane jako markery aktywności współczulnej w badaniach psychologicznych.
