Give Peace a Chance
In Give Peace a Chance, the distinguished Dr. Hamburg teams up with his filmmaker son to tell the story of selected significant peace achievements over the past 25 years. Including lessons from personal experience, pithy quotes from interviews with international dignitaries, and the insights of a documentary sensibility, this book reflects upon striking moments in peace history and inflects them with the perspective of preventive medicine. From J…
Give Peace a Chance
Learning to Live Together
With a view to deepening our understanding of sources of hatred and prejudice, this book uses a developmental and evolutionary perspective to explore and explain the process by which our beliefs are conveyed to the youngest members of society. Discussing the psychological obstacles to peaceful relations between groups, the authors focus on the developmental processes by which we can work to diminish ethnocentrism, prejudice, and hatred, which chi…

Hormonal and behavioral response of male chimpanzees to a long-acting analogue of gonadotropin-releasing hormone
Coping and Adaptation
For a long time it has been my contention that mental health is adequate maturity plus adjustment. For the adequately matune person, coping and adaptation are pretty much what living is all about; therefore, a book on this subject is more than welcome. This volume is a follow-up of the Conference on Coping and Adaptation held in Palo Alto, Calif., March 20-22, 1969. The conference was sponsored by Stanford University’s Department of Psychiatry an…
Orgasmic frequency and plasma testosterone levels in normal human males
Negative Affect and Plasma Testosterone
The association between mood and plasma testosterone was investigated. Every second day for 2 months, a Multiple Affect Adjective Checklist was filled out by 20 young men. Blood samples taken at the same time were analyzed for testosterone concentration. Relationships between hostility, anxiety, and depression and plasma testosterone levels were tested both within and across individuals. Intrasubject correlation coefficients between affects and h…

Corticosteroid Excretion in Normal Young Adults Living Under “Basal” Conditions
Under basal conditions in a hospital setting, mean 17-OHCS excretion for normal 18- to 25-year-old males and females was 8.5 (13.3–5.5) and 5.1 mg./day (8.6–3.0), respectively. Weight “correction” did not abolish this significant sex difference; it did alter somewhat the rank-order of “high” to “low” 17-OHCS excretors. Values for males were about 50% higher than those reported in outpatient studies. Subjects tended to be relatively consistent in …
Correlations Between Behavioral Variables and Urinary 17-Hydroxycorticosteroids in Depressed Patients
This paper presents a study of the relationship of urinary 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (17-OHCS) to behavioral variables in depressed patients. Longitudinal behavioral ratings of depression and anxiety showed high positive correlations with 17-OHCS levels when analyzed over time for a given patient. However, if mean depression ratings and mean 17-OHCS levels were taken for each of the 17 patients studied, a significant positive correlation was not …
Urinary 17-Hydroxycorticosteroid Levels in Parents of Children with Neoplastic Disease
Urinary 17-hydroxycorticosteroid (17-OHCS) excretion rates were determined in 43 subjects, representing one or both parents of 26 children with neoplastic disease. Twentynine of the parents were admitted for study to a National Institute of Mental Health ward while their children were hospitalized; 14 parents lived at home and were studied on an “outpatient” basis. In this situation of chronic psychological stress, repeated determinations on each…
Development of autonomy and parent-child interaction in late adolescence
This study explores the relationship between the capacity for autonomous behavior among freshman college students and the patterns of interaction between the students and their parents during the transition from high school to college. Autonomous-relatedness, the capacity for integration of both independent behavior and the maintenance of positive family ties, appears related to particular transactional family patterns, which were observed
Psychological Factors Lowering Plasma 17-Hydroxycorticosteroid Concentration
While much recent evidence indicates that a variety of psychological stimulus conditions can elevate the circulating levels of hormones known to be responsive to stress, little work has been done exploring those conditions which might lower the levels of such hormones. Using 19 normal young adult male subjects viewing Disney nature-study films, it was discovered that the levels of plasma 17-hydroxycorticosteroid (17-OHCS) were lowered to a signif…
Some Issues in Research on Human Behavior and Adrenocortical Function
teresting study by Dr. Persky et al. is an at-tempt to measure a trophic hormone of the anterior pituitary. A decade ago, adrenocor-tical function was assessed by measuring metabolic processes known to be influenced by the adrenal cortex. These metabolic processes were, however, also influenced by a variety of other regulatory forces, and so interpretation of results was very difficult. Then, with the publication in 1952 of the Nelson-Samuels met…
Psychological Stress and Endocrine Functions
Evidence indicating the importance of the adrenal cortex and thyroid in adaptation to stressful conditions was reviewed. Serum protein-bound iodine (PBI) and plasma 17-hydroxycorticosterone (17-OH) were determined in 30 patients within 24 hours after their admission to the psychiatric section of a general hospital. These patients showed a significantly elevated 17-OH mean level in comparison with control subjects. Their diurnal fall was less than…
