Differential Effects of “Shame” and “Disintegrative” Threats on Emotional and Adrenocortical Functioning

1 Introduction: Psychosocial Stimuli, Psychophysiological Reactions, and Disease

“…Increased adrenal cortical activity has been noted in response to hospitalization , anticipation of laboratory procedures (Mason, 1959;Persky et al, 1959), thoracic surgery (Price et al,, medical exams (Bliss et al, 1956), psychiatric interviews (Hetzel et al, 1955;Oken et al, 1960;Persky et al, 1958), pursuit-meter operation and psychological tests (Freeman et al, 1944;Korchin and Herz, 1960), motor-car driving (Frost et al, 1951;Hill et al, 1956), participation in flying activities (Craven and Smith, 1955;Male et al, 1958;Colehour, 1964), or in intense combat action (Elmadjian, 1955;Pace et al, 19-56), whereas viewing Disney nature-study films actually lowered the 17-hydroxycorticosteroids in plasma (Handlon et al, 1962).…”

2 Methodological Considerations in Psychoendocrine Research

“…It is obvious that the familiarity with and attitude towards the laboratory environment and experimental setting may vary quite a lot, depending upon which category you choose. Such factors are potent in modifying the attitudes and the psychological reactions induced by the experiment (Kaplan, 1956), and, consequently, the physiological concomitants of these reactions Handlon et al, 1962;Hamburg, 1962;Korchin and Herz, 1960;Fishman et al, 1962;Elmadjian, 1963;Haggard, 1943;Malmo et al, 1951).…”
