Social allostasis: anticipatory regulation of the internal milieu
Open accessAbstract
Social regulation of the internal milieu is a fundamental behavioral adaptation. Cephalic capability is reflected by anticipatory behaviors to serve systemic physiological regulation. Homeostatic regulation, a dominant perspective, reflects reactive responses; allostatic regulation, the physiology of change, emphasizes longer-term anticipatory, and feedforward systems. Steroids, such as cortisol, and peptides such as corticotrophin releasing hormone are but one example of such anticipatory regulatory systems. The concept of "allostasis" is in part to take account of anticipatory control amidst diverse forms of adaptation underlying this regulatory adaptation that supports social contact and the internal milieu.

When a stressful situation is anticipated, individuals make behavioral, cognitive, and physiological adjustments that facilitate the process of coping with the upcoming stressor.
“Indeed, it has been proposed that, when a stressful situation is anticipated, individuals make behavioral, cognitive, and physiological adjustments that facilitate the process of coping with the upcoming stressor (Pulopulos et al., 2018a;Schulkin, 2011;Schulkin et al., 1994;Turan et al., 2015).”

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.
