Oxytocin increases autonomic cardiac control: moderation by lonelinessGreg J Norman
Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
Biol Psychol 86:174-80. 2011..Thus, lonely individuals may be less responsive to the salubrious effects of oxytocin on cardiovascular responsivity...
Selective influences of oxytocin on the evaluative processing of social stimuliGreg J Norman
Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
J Psychopharmacol 25:1313-9. 2011..These results indicate that oxytocin may exert its effects through dynamic alterations in the partially separable neural substrates mediating arousal as well as positive and negative evaluations of social stimuli...
Photoperiod alters autonomic regulation of the heartZachary M Weil
Department of Psychology, and Institute for Behavioral Medicine Research, Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:4525-30. 2009..Finally, these effects were discovered to be independent of circulating androgens. These data indicate that the ANS of Siberian hamsters undergoes profound changes following prolonged exposure to short winter-like day lengths...

A neurobehavioral evolutionary perspective on the mechanisms underlying empathyJean Decety
Department of Psychology, The University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA
Prog Neurobiol 98:38-48. 2012..Considering empathy within a framework that recognizes both the continuities and the changes within a phylogenetic perspective provides a richer understanding of empathy and related neurobehavioral processes...
Cardiac autonomic balance versus cardiac regulatory capacityGary G Berntson
Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, 1835 Neil Avenue, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
Psychophysiology 45:643-52. 2008..Results reveal that CAR, but not CAB, was a significant predictor of the prior occurrence of a myocardial infarction, net of demographic and other variables, whereas CAB, but not CAR, was a significant predictor of concurrent diabetes...

Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
Neurobiol Dis 36:352-60. 2009..Our results document that brain tissue displays endogenous fluctuations in susceptibility to ischemic damage and demonstrate that small differences in time of onset can significantly influence ischemic outcomes...

Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, 1835 Neil Avenue, Columbus, OH 43210, USA
Psychosom Med 72:519-26. 2010..The determination of potential mechanisms that mediate social influences on the behavioral and physiological response to peripheral nerve injury...
