“…The difference in findings between the two applied sets of measurements-self-report and autonomic responsiveness-again supports the observation of a dissociation between measures of emotional and physiological reactivity (28) and reinforces the long recognized need in the emotion literature to examine multiple response domains. One could speculate that boys with conduct disorder with and without ADHD report low levels of arousal to negative pictures in particular because these appraisals fit their self-image of being fearless, tough, and "cool" (29).…”

Although the self-report data supported a deficit in reactivity to explicit fear cues, the psychophysiological data indicated that boys with conduct disorder both with and without a comorbid condition of ADHD are characterized by a generalized deficit in autonomic responsivity in an experimental situation in which children were exposed to complex visual stimuli of unpredictable affective quality. Psychophysiological findings may point to a deficit in associative information processing systems that normally produce adaptive cognitive-emotional reactions.

“…Here we focus on Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) activation to investigate how gene*environment interaction moderates automatic physiological development. We evaluate heart rate changes and peripheral skin temperature (on the nose) to better assess the activation of both the parasympathetic and sympathetic branches of the ANS (Ioannou et al, 2013; Kothgassner et al, 2016; Manini et al, 2013; Quas et al, 2000). …”

Parental bonding and oxytocin receptor (OXTR) gene genotype each influences social abilities in adulthood. Here, we hypothesized an interaction between the two – environmental experience (parental bonding history) and genetic factors (OXTR gene genotype) – in shaping adults’ social sensitivity (physiological response to distress). We assessed heart rate and peripheral temperature (tip of the nose) in 42 male adults during presentation of distress vocalizations (distress cries belonging to female human infants and adults as well as bonobo). The two physiological responses index, respectively, state of arousal and readiness to action. Participants’ parental bonding in childhood was assessed through the self-report Parental Bonding Instrument. To assess participants’ genetic predispositions, buccal mucosa cell samples were collected, and region rs2254298 of the oxytocin receptor gene was analyzed: previous OXTR gene findings point to associations between the G allele and better sociality (protective factor) and the A allele and poorer sociality (risk factor). We found a gene * environment interaction for susceptibility to social distress: Participants with a genetic risk factor (A carriers) with a history of high paternal overprotection showed higher heart rate increase than those without this risk factor (G/G genotype) to social distress. Also, a significant effect of the interaction between paternal care and genotype on nose temperature changes was found. This susceptibility appears to represent an indirect pathway through which genes and experiences interact to shape mature social sensitivity in males.

“…This is clinically important, situational blood pressure responses are hard to predict because they do not correlate with the external appearance of anxiety. 11,12 This study investigates the effects on blood pressure of a potential cause of situational anxiety: anticipation of a blood test. Blood tests are among the most common of clinical investigations.…”

A randomised controlled trial of the effect of anticipation of a blood test on blood pressure

Blood pressure is affected by situational anxiety, such as the white coat effect. We hypothesised that blood pressure would also be affected by anticipation of a blood test. Volunteer subjects were recruited on the campus of Birmingham University. Subjects were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. After a period of rest, three seated blood pressure measurements were taken at 1-min intervals using an electronic sphygmomanometer. Between the second and third measurements subjects in the intervention group were told that a blood test would be carried out after the last measurement. No blood test was carried out. Three blood pressure measurements were made in all 213 randomised subjects. Analysis was by intentionto-treat. In the control group mean systolic and diastolic
