  • Childhood socioeconomic status and changes in biological aging across mid-to-later life

    Open AccessRebecca G Reed, Mia K DeCataldo et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2026

  • Characterizing stress processes by linking big five personality states, traits, and day-to-day stressors

    Open AccessWhitney R Ringwald, Sienna R Nielsen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research in Personality2024Citada por: 1Referencias: 80

  • Beyond Neighborhood Disadvantage

    Open AccessPeter J Gianaros, Portia Miller et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2023

    OBJECTIVE: Residing in communities characterized by socioeconomic disadvantage confers risk of cardiometabolic diseases. Residing in disadvantaged communities may also confer the risk of neurodegenerative brain changes via cardiometabolic pathways. This study tested whether features of communities-apart from conventional socioeconomic characteristics-relate not only to cardiometabolic risk but also to relative tissue reductions in the cerebral co…

  • The personality meta‐trait of stability and carotid artery atherosclerosis

    Open AccessWhitney R Ringwald, Aleksandra Kaurin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2023

    BACKGROUND: Several personality traits increase the risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Because many of these traits are correlated, their associations with disease risk could reflect shared variance, rather than unique contributions of each trait. We examined a higher-order personality trait of Stability as related to preclinical atherosclerosis and tested whether any such relationship might be explained by correlated variation in c…

  • Refining the maturity principle of personality development by examining facets, close others, and comaturation

    Ted Schwaba, Wiebke Bleidorn et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…2022Citada por: 8Referencias: 2

    Across adulthood, people tend to experience psychologically adaptive personality trait change, a robust finding known as the maturity principle of personality development. We identify three open areas of inquiry regarding personality maturation and address them in a preregistered study, using a sample of U.S. adults ages 30-70 who completed a battery of personality questionnaires and were rated by two close others twice over an 11- to 16-year per…

  • Social Integration and Diurnal Cortisol Decline

    Kristina D Dickman, Mark Thomas et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2020

    OBJECTIVE: A growing number of studies have associated various measures of social integration, the diversity of social roles in which one participates, with alterations in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) functioning. The pathways through which social integration may be linked to HPA functioning, however, are as yet unknown. The present study examined whether daily social interactions, affective responses, health behaviors, and persona…

  • Socioeconomic Position and Age-Related Disparities in Regional Cerebral Blood Flow Within the Prefrontal Cortex

    Daniel A Hackman, Dora C-H Kuan et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2018

    OBJECTIVE: Socioeconomic position (SEP) is associated with cerebrovascular health and brain function, particularly in prefrontal cortex and medial temporal lobe regions that exhibit plasticity across the life course. However, it is unknown whether SEP associates with resting cerebral blood flow (CBF), an indicator of baseline brain function, in these regions in midlife, and whether the association is (a) period specific, with independent associat…

  • Ambulatory Blood Pressure Reactivity as a Moderator in the Association Between Daily Life Psychosocial Stress and Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis

    Thomas W Kamarck, Xingyuan Li et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2018

    OBJECTIVE: We examined whether associations between daily psychosocial stressor exposures and carotid artery intima-medial thickness (IMT) may be stronger among those showing larger stress-related cardiovascular reactivity (CVR) during the course of daily living. METHODS: A total of 474 healthy working adults (ages 30-54 years) collected ambulatory blood pressure and recorded their daily experiences, using electronic diaries, during two 2-day per…

  • Omega-3 Supplementation and the Neural Correlates of Negative Affect and Impulsivity

    Annie T Ginty, Matthew F Muldoon et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2017

    OBJECTIVE: In clinical trials, omega-3 fatty acid supplementation improves symptoms in psychiatric disorders involving dysregulated mood and impulse control, yet it is unclear whether in healthy adults, omega-3 fatty acid supplementation affects mood, impulse control, and the brain systems supporting these processes. Accordingly, this study tested the hypotheses that eciosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acid supplementation reduces ne…

  • A Stage Model of Stress and Disease

    Open AccessSheldon Cohen, Peter J Gianaros et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Psychological…2016

    In this article, we argued that the term stress has served as a valuable heuristic, helping researchers to integrate traditions that illuminate different stages of the process linking stressful life events to disease. We provided a short history of three traditions in the study of stress: the epidemiological, psychological, and biological. The epidemiological tradition focuses on defining which circumstances and experiences are deemed stressful o…

  • Early Life Family Conflict, Social Interactions, and Carotid Artery Intima-Media Thickness in Adulthood

    Neha A John-Henderson, Thomas W Kamarck et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2016

    OBJECTIVE: Conflict in early life family environments is known to affect psychosocial functioning and coping styles into adulthood and is reported to negatively affect access to psychosocial resources that are critical to the management of stress. However, it remains unknown whether early life family conflict similarly affects subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) in adulthood. We predicted that family conflict in early life would be associate…

  • Childhood Socioeconomic Status and the Occurrence of Recent Negative Life Events as Predictors of Circulating and Stimulated Levels of Interleukin-6

    Neha A John-Henderson, Anna L Marsland et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2016

    OBJECTIVES: Evidence supports an inverse association of childhood socioeconomic status (SES) with systemic inflammation in adulthood. However, it remains to be determined whether this association is dependent on exposure to stressful life experiences. METHODS: We predicted that the combination of a high number of recent negative life events and low childhood SES would be associated with the highest levels of both circulating interleukin (IL)-6 an…

  • The Role of Occupational Status in the Association Between Job Strain and Ambulatory Blood Pressure During Working and Nonworking Days

    Nathan Joseph, Nataria T Joseph et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2016

    OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to determine whether job strain is more strongly associated with higher ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) among blue-collar workers compared with white-collar workers, to examine whether this pattern generalizes across working and nonworking days and across sex, and to examine whether this pattern is accounted for by psychosocial factors or health behaviors during daily life. METHODS: A total of 480 hea…

  • Personality Correlates of Midlife Cardiometabolic Risk

    Open AccessSarah S Dermody, Aidan G C Wright et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2016

    Varying associations are reported between Five‐Factor Model (FFM) personality traits and cardiovascular disease risk. Here, we further examine dispositional correlates of cardiometabolic risk within a hierarchical model of personality that proposes higher‐order traits of Stability (shared variance of Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, inverse Neuroticism) and Plasticity (Extraversion, Openness), and we test hypothesized mediation via biological an…

  • The relationship of cardiometabolic risk to basal ganglia volume in midlife adults

    Open AccessShannon D Donofry, Peter J Gianaros et al.ARTICLEAppetite2016

  • Daily Marital Interaction Quality and Carotid Artery Intima-Medial Thickness in Healthy Middle-Aged Adults

    Nathan Joseph, Nataria Tennille Joseph et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2014

    OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between marital interaction quality during daily life and subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD). Studies have shown that marital status and quality of marriage are associated with cardiovascular health. However, little is known about the role of marital interaction quality during daily life in contributing to these effects. METHODS: The sample consisted of 281 healthy, employed middle-aged adults who were …

  • Neurobiological Pathways Linking Socioeconomic Position and Health

    Peter J Gianaros, Stephen B ManuckARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2010

    Across individuals, risk for poor health varies inversely with socioeconomic position (SEP). The pathways by which SEP affects health have been viewed from many epidemiological perspectives. Central to these perspectives is the notion that socioeconomic health disparities arise from an interplay between nested, recursive, and cumulative environmental, social, familial, psychological, behavioral, and physiological processes that unfold over the li…

  • Subjective Socioeconomic Status and Presence of the Metabolic Syndrome in Midlife Community Volunteers

    Stephen B Manuck, Jennifer E Phillips et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2010

    OBJECTIVE: Objective indices of socioeconomic status (SES) predict diverse sources of morbidity and mortality as well as numerous biological and behavioral risk factors for disease. Here we examine whether subjective measures of SES may be similarly associated with measured risk factors including the metabolic syndrome and its components of elevated blood pressure, high fasting glucose, dyslipidemia, and central adiposity. METHODS: Observations w…

  • A Urinary Marker of Oxidative Stress Covaries Positively With Hostility Among Midlife Community Volunteers

    John E Carroll, Judith E Carroll et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2010

    OBJECTIVE: Although not all findings are consistent, growing evidence suggests that individuals high in dispositional hostility are at elevated risk for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality; however, the mechanisms of these associations remain unclear. One possibility is that hostility is associated with oxidative stress. Here, we explore relationships between hostility and a measure of systemic oxidative stress among a mid-life sample.…

  • The relationship between social status and atherosclerosis in male and female monkeys as revealed by meta‐analysis

    Open AccessJ R Kaplan, Haiying Chen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology2009

    More than 25 years ago our laboratory reported sex‐dependent relationships between social status and coronary artery atherosclerosis among cholesterol‐fed cynomolgus monkeys ( Macaca fascicularis ) maintained in social groups of four to six animals each. Dominant males developed more atherosclerosis than subordinates, but only if housed in recurrently reorganized social groups. In contrast, dominant females developed significantly less atheroscle…

  • Impulsiveness and Cigarette Smoking

    Janine D Flory, Stephen B ManuckARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2009

    OBJECTIVE: Varying aspects of impulsive personality have been associated with tobacco use in cross-sectional and prospective studies, including novelty seeking and (low) constraint but most studies have not examined more than one tobacco use phenotype (e.g., any tobacco use versus dependence) or considered more than one variety of impulsiveness simultaneously. METHODS: The current study was conducted to evaluate the association of impulsive perso…

  • Trait Negative Affect

    Maria E Bleil, Peter J Gianaros et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2008

    Objective: To assess depression, anxiety, and anger as well as the variance that these emotions share (conceptualized as negative affect) in relationship to high-frequency heart rate variability (HF-HRV), a specific indicator of parasympathetic cardiac autonomic function related to premature cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although individual trait negative emotions have been studied in relation to risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) as…

  • Community Socioeconomic Status is Associated With Circulating Interleukin-6 and C-Reactive Protein

    Karen L Petersen, Anna L Marsland et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2008

    OBJECTIVE: To examine the association of both individual and community socioeconomic status (SES) with inflammatory mediators relevant to cardiovascular pathophysiology, i.e., interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP), in a midlife community sample. Growing evidence suggests that socioeconomic attributes of both individuals and communities confer risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. METHODS: Subjects were 851 men and women, 30 t…

  • High ω-6 and Low ω-3 Fatty Acids are Associated With Depressive Symptoms and Neuroticism

    Sarah M Conklin, Stephen B Manuck et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2007

    OBJECTIVE: To examine the concentrations of omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in serum obtained from nonpatient community volunteers not selected for hypercholesterolemia. Previously we reported that the relative concentrations of omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in serum covary with depressive symptomatology and neuroticism in hypercholesterolemic adults. METHODS: A total of 116 adults without current Axis I psychopa…

  • Stimulated Production of Proinflammatory Cytokines Covaries Inversely With Heart Rate Variability

    Anna L Marsland, Peter J Gianaros et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2007

    OBJECTIVE: To examine whether high-frequency heart rate variability, an indirect measure of parasympathetic (vagal) control over variations in heart rate, is associated with immune reactivity to an in vitro inflammatory challenge. Convergent evidence from the animal literature shows that the autonomic nervous system plays a key role in regulating the magnitude of immune responses to inflammatory stimuli. Signaling by the parasympathetic system in…
