Past research suggests that individuals high in basal testosterone are motivated to gain status. The present extends previous work by examining endocrinological and behavioral consequences of low status as a function testosterone. outcome competition--victory versus defeat--was used marker In Study 1, men who lost dog agility competition rose cortisol, whereas won dropped cortisol. Low men's cortisol changes did not depend on whether they had or lost. 2 replicated this pattern women...
Why do some people strive for high status, whereas others actively avoid it? In the present studies, authors examined psychological and physiological consequences of a mismatch between baseline testosterone person's current level status. The tested this effect by placing low individuals into or status positions using rigged competition. Study 1, participants reported greater emotional arousal, focused more on their showed worse cognitive functioning in position. High pattern 2, arousal...
The steroid hormone testosterone has been associated with behavior intended to obtain or maintain high social status. Although such is typically characterized as aggressive and competitive, it clear that status achieved maintained not only through antisocial but also prosocial behavior. In the present experiment, we investigated impact of administration on trust reciprocity using a double-blind randomized control design. We found single dose 0.5 mg decreased increased generosity when...
Testosterone administration in human participants increased amygdala responses during threat approach and decreased it avoidance.
High social status reduces stress responses in numerous species, but the stress-buffering effect of may dissipate or even reverse during times hierarchical instability. In an experimental test this hypothesis, 118 participants (57.3% female) were randomly assigned to a high- low-status position stable unstable hierarchy and then exposed social-evaluative stressor (a mock job interview). buffered improved interview performance, high boosted did not lead better performance. This general...
Stress is an established risk factor for negative health outcomes. Salivary cortisol and testosterone concentrations increase in response to acute psychosocial stress. It's crucial reduce stress well-being through evidence-based interventions. Body-mind interventions such as meditation Tai Chi have shown reduced levels but mixed results concentration after To address this research gap, we conducted a pilot randomized controlled trial examine the modulating effects of short-term (seven...
In this study, 76 men came into the lab in pairs and engaged a 7-minute videotaped mate competition for attention of an attractive female confederate. Pre-competition testosterone (T) levels were positively associated with men’s dominance behaviors how much confederate indicated that she “clicked” each participant. Dyadic analyses showed self-reported moderated effects T on one’s own opponents' behaviors. Specifically, among high dominance, there was strong positive association between their...
In the present research, we found that endogenous testosterone and cortisol changes were jointly related to bargaining outcomes. a face-to-face competitive negotiation (Study 1) laboratory-based game 2), rises associated with high earnings relationship quality, but only if dropped. If rose, low poor quality. Conflict between financial social goals was financially costly dual-hormone profile (testosterone increase increase), whereas absence of such conflict adaptive decrease) [corrected].The...
Individuals from different marginalized groups can internalize negative social beliefs about themselves and their groups. However, a scale that allows for direct comparisons of internalized stigma across multiple has not yet been developed. This paper presents the development validation Multiple-Group Internalized Stigma Scale (MGISS). Participants were recruited four stigmatized representing possible combinations characteristics mutability concealability (i.e., Black or Indigenous, lesbian,...
When interacting with others in unfamiliar sociocultural settings, people need to learn the norms guiding appropriate behavior. The present research investigates an individual difference that helps this kind of learning: stress reactivity. Interactions setting are stressful, particularly when actor fails follow its rules. Although is typically considered a liability, more stress-reactive individuals may be motivated improve and, thus, quicker these Consistent idea, pilot study found...
