“…The participant's acts, words, and thoughts are also discussed. The interviewer neither challenges nor criticizes the participant but tries instead to help the person re-experience the moment using guided imagery, empathic remarks, and reflective listening (Ewart and Kolodner 1991).…”

“…It has previously been used in tandem with measures of cardiovascular response, hormones, and other indices of physiological reactivity in response to interpersonal stress (Ewart et al 1998(Ewart et al , 2002Ewart and Kolodner 1991). It has been used to elicit physiological responding with adolescents (Ewart and Kolodner 1991) as well as young adults (Cribbet et al 2011).…”

Trait-Like Mindfulness Promotes Healthy Self-Regulation of Stress

A number of experts have described mindfulness as a naturally occurring quality in the human mind that is present to some degree in all people, even without training in mindfulness or meditation. This study examined whether trait mindfulness is associated with reduced stress response activation and enhanced self-regulatory activity with recurrent stress. Self-ratings of mindfulness and continuous measures of physiological reactivity before, during, and after an interview about a recurrent stressful issue were collected from 47 undergraduate participants to examine our primary objective. Findings indicated that mindful individuals were less likely to engage in metabolically costly physiological activation in response to an emotionally challenging task, but were more likely to engage parasympathetic responding following the task, a response which is associated with effective downregulation following stress. Results from our study suggest that Bnatively mindful^individuals have the ability to engage self-regulatory physiological responding associated with improved adaptability and flexibility in a changing environment. Thus, mindfulness may be associated with physical indices of emotional well-being. Furthermore, our data adds evidence for the validity of self-report measures of mindfulness.

A 10-min structured interview was used to guide the subject in describing the event, including his/her affective and behavioral responses and summarization of outcome of the event.…”

Genetic influence on blood pressure measured in the office, under laboratory stress and during real life

To determine to what extent the genetic influences on blood pressure (BP) measured in the office, under psychologically stressful conditions in the laboratory and during real life are different from each other. Office BP, BP during a video game challenge and a social stressor interview, and 24-h ambulatory BP were measured in 238 European American and 186 African American twins. BP values across the two tasks were averaged to represent stress levels. Genetic model fitting showed no ethnic or gender differences for any of the measures. The model fitting resulted in heritability estimates of 63, 75 and 71% for office, stress and 24-h systolic BP (SBP) and 59, 67 and 69% for diastolic BP (DBP), respectively. Up to 81% of the heritability of office SBP and 71% of office DBP were attributed to genes that also influenced stress BP. However, only 45% of the heritability of 24-h SBP and 49% of 24-h DBP were attributed to genes that also influence office BP. Similarly, about 39% of the heritability of 24-h SBP and 42% of 24-h DBP were attributed to genes that also influence stress BP. Substantial overlap exists between genes that influence BP measured in the office, under laboratory stress and during real life. However, significant genetic components specific to each BP measurement also exist. These findings suggest that partly different genes or sets of genes contribute to BP regulation in different conditions.

“…Patients then talked to the interviewer about a personal, emotional situation associated with this first stressor for the next 4 min. This stress interview was modelled on the social competence interview of EWART and KOLODNER [19]. SP, DP and fC were automatically measured every 2 min, throughout the 6-min period that patients interacted with the interviewer.…”

Early pulmonary response to allergen is attenuated during acute emotional stress in females with asthma

et al. 2003

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Some asthma patients and physicians who treat asthma have reported that stress worsens their disease. It has also recently been shown that chronic stressful life events increase airway inflammation 6-24 h after inhalation of antigen in patients with allergic asthma. However, there is no data regarding the effect of an acute stressor on the airway constriction that occurs within minutes of antigen inhalation (early pulmonary response) in this same population. The aim of this study was to examine this effect in eight females with allergic asthma.Each subject was challenged with increasing concentrations of inhaled allergen on a control visit (no stress) and on a stress visit, when they were asked to verbally recount an emotionally stressful situation between each concentration. Systolic (SP) and diastolic (DP) blood pressure, cardiac frequency ( fC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) were measured on both visits.SP, DP and fC were statistically increased on the stress visit as compared to control. Per cent decrease in FEV1 at the same last dose of allergen was significantly less on the stress visit (11.2¡7.0%) compared to control (15.0¡8.7%).These findings suggest that the early pulmonary response to inhaled allergen is attenuated while verbally re-experiencing an acute emotional stressor in females with allergic asthma.
