University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA
Horm Behav 46:592-9. 2004..These findings suggest that aroused affiliation motivation has a specific stimulatory effect on P, whereas aroused power motivation has a specific stimulatory effect on T in men, but not in women, with high baseline T levels... - Social closeness increases salivary progesterone in humansStephanie L Brown

Horm Behav 52:571-80. 2007..Self-reported dominance and aggression did not predict estradiol changes as a function of contest outcome.

Biol Psychol 74:104-7. 2007..These findings suggest that progesterone is released from the adrenal along with cortisol in humans, due to general adrenal activation and/or possibly as an additional negative feedback mechanism to down-regulate the stress response... - Salivary cortisol changes in humans after winning or losing a dominance contest depend on implicit power motivationMichelle M Wirth
