TAP reading note: Acute stressors and cortisol responses: a theoretical integration and synthesis of laboratory research

Laboratory stressors do not elicit uniform cortisol responses. Social-evaluative threat combined with uncontrollability was associated with stronger responses. Pooled effects were d=.52 (95% CI .38–.66) for uncontrollable tasks and d=.16 (.03–.29) for controllable tasks, helping explain variation between studies.
