Perceived work overload and chronic worrying predict weekend-weekday differences in the cortisol awakening responseWolff Schlotz
University of Trier, Department of Psychobiology, Trier, Germany
Psychosom Med 66:207-14. 2004..This study tests whether cortisol awakening responses are different on weekdays compared with weekend days and whether such differences may be explained by chronic work overload and worrying...
Trait anxiety moderates the impact of performance pressure on salivary cortisol in everyday lifeWolff Schlotz
Department of Psychobiology, University of Trier, Johanniterufer 15, 54290 Trier, Germany
Psychoneuroendocrinology 31:459-72. 2006..Subjects scoring high on trait anxiety seem to process stress-relevant information in a way that amplifies the association of performance pressure with reactions of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis...
Is the cortisol awakening rise a response to awakening?Ines Wilhelm
Department of Psychobiology, University of Trier, Johanniterufer 15, 54290 Trier, Germany
Psychoneuroendocrinology 32:358-66. 2007..Although the cortisol awakening response is modulated by circadian influences, it primarily reflects phasic psychophysiological processes specific to the sleep-wake transition...

Department of Psychobiology, University of Trier, Johanniterufer 15, 54290 Trier, Germany
Psychoneuroendocrinology 30:591-8. 2005..As the investigated subjects were twins, possible implications of this sample characteristic for the present findings are discussed...

Department of Psychology and Social Behavior, University of California, Irvine, 92697 7085, USA
Psychol Med 36:375-85. 2006..The aims of this study were to estimate whether perceived stress is a heritable condition and to assess whether heritability estimates vary between subjective stress reactivity and stress related to external demands...
