Serum Cortisol Response to Incremental Work in Experienced and Naive Subjects
Abstract
Twelve experienced and seven naive male subjects with a similar Vo2max, performed an incremental work test on an electronically braked bicycle until exhaustion. High venous lactate concentrations were recorded in both groups (naive-11.74 +/- 2.43, experienced-13.96 +/- 2.36 mmol/liter). No significant relationship could be demonstrated between Vo2max, venous lactate concentration, Borg ratings of perceived exertion, and the serum cortisol response. The postexercise increase in serum cortisol was significant in both experienced (59%) and naive (138%) groups, and was significantly greater in the naive as compared to the experienced subjects. The present results indicate that the psychoendocrine response to a novel situation was a major determinant of the serum cortisol response to maximum work.

Cortisol is known to more clearly track stressor anticipation, novelty/familiarity, and social-evaluative threat than subjective emotional distress.
“In contrast to subjective emotional distress, cortisol is known to more clearly track things like stressor anticipation, novelty/familiarity, and social-evaluative threat (Curtis et al., 1976; Davis et al., 1981; Dickerson and Kemeny, 2004; Gaab et al., 2005; Mayer et al., 2017; Peters et al., 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
