    OBJECTIVE: We tested a theoretical stress model cross-sectionally and prospectively that examined whether relationships of chronic stress, psychophysiology, and coronary heart disease (CHD) varied in older adult men (N = 47), older adult women not using hormone replacement therapy (HRT) (N = 64), and older adult women using HRT (N = 41). METHOD: Structural equations examined relationships of CHD with 1) chronic stress (caring for a spouse with Al…

    James M Scanlan, Peter P Vitaliano et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1998

    OBJECTIVE: This study examined relationships of gender, psychosocial stress/distress (caregiving, hassles, depressed mood), and the relative percentage and absolute cell counts of CD4 and CD8 cells in two samples of older adults (mean age = 69.4)--spouse caregivers of persons with Alzheimer's disease (N = 78) and age- and gender-matched spouses of nondemented controls (N = 72). METHODS: Counts and percentages of CD4 and CD8 cells and psychosocial…

    Peter P Vitaliano, James M Scanlan et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1996

    Relationships of psychosocial factors (anger, hostility, hassles, and caregiving) with fasting insulin and glucose levels were examined. Samples included two groups of nondiabetic adults (mean age = 69.4 years): spouse caregivers (CG) of individuals with diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease (AD) (N = 78) and spouses of nondemented controls (CO) (N = 72) matched for age and gender. The groups were assessed twice with a 15-to 18-month hiatus. To obtain…

  • Psychological Distress, Caregiving, and Metabolic Variables

    Peter P Vitaliano, James M Scanlan et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…1996Cited by: 8References: 4

    This study examined relationships between chronic stress and insulin/glucose in two groups of nondiabetics, M age = 69.4: spouse caregivers (CGs) of persons with Alzheimer's disease (n = 73) and age- and gender-matched spouses of nondemented controls (COs) (n = 69). Fasting insulin/glucose and psychological variables were assessed twice (Time 1, Time 2) over a 15-18 month period. CGs had significantly higher insulin levels at Times 1 and 2 than d…

  • Effects of age, rearing, and separation stress on immunoglobulin levels in rhesus monkeys

    Open AccessJames M Scanlan, Christopher L Coe et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology1987

    The study reported here examined the effect of different rearing conditions and psychological stress on immunoglobulin levels in rhesus monkey infants. In the first experiment, 24 rhesus neonates were placed in one of the three following rearing conditions: Separated from their mothers and reared in the laboratory nursery; kept with their biological mothers; or removed at birth from their biological mothers and cross‐fostered to adoptive rhesus m…
