increased stress reactivity and irritability.

There were also several studies that reported changes in physiological and cognitive outcomes including
increased heart rate variability, decreased cortisol concentration, improved respiratory muscle and abdominal strength, greater flexibility, improved planning and execution of cognitive tasks, and even declines in physiological
stress reactivity.
An overstimulated, undernourished nervous system results in greater emotional sensitivity and
reactivity, so by strengthening this system we
increase our threshold for
stress - and anxiety - provoking stimuli.

Stress paradigms in rodent models have been associated with elevated anxiety and contrasting alterations in neuronal morphology in the hippocampus and amygdala, with dendritic atrophy observed in the hippocampus and increased dendritic arborization in the amygdala.12, 13 Developing rodents deprived of maternal nurturance show decreased hippocampal volume and altered stress reactivity.14 An epigenetic mechanism for this effect has been elaborated.15 Importantly, controlled trials that have randomized institutionalized toddlers to early therapeutic foster care vs institutionalization have documented the deleterious effects of early relative deprivation on cognitive outco

Cross-sectional evidence suggests that maternal IPV is associated with decreased lung function19 and
increased child asthma risk in early development20 as well as children's behavioral and physiological
stress reactivity and emotional and behavioral development.21 - 23 However, while mothers experiencing IPV show
increased levels of
stress, they do not always show deficient parenting.
First, anxious - avoidant pairings exhibited high
stress reactivity in anticipation of a relationship conflict, a pattern that may take a toll on health over time (e.g., by
increasing one's susceptibility to illness or risk factors for disease, such as high blood pressure or inflammatory compounds).
Promoting Resilience and Reducing Secondary Trauma Among Child Welfare Staff (PDF - 1116 KB) ACS - NYU Children's Trauma Institute Describes a project to mitigate the impact of secondary traumatic
stress among child protective staff in New York City, and thereby
increase staff job satisfaction, resilience, optimism, self - care and social support, and decrease staff attrition,
stress reactivity and burnout.
The anticipated outcome of these exercises is decreased parental
stress and negative
reactivity, which may lead to an
increased aptitude for selecting more optimal parenting practices.
Chronic
stress and
stress reactivity have been found associated with
increased levels of salivary [alpha]- amylase.
There is a pattern of
increase in the left prefrontal cortex (seen in people that are happy and experience less anxiety and depression), stronger immune response, reduces
reactivity to
stress, and
increases self - esteem and feelings of control.
In the control group (p = 0.042) but not in the Taiji group (p = 0.69) salivary cortisol
stress reactivity was significantly
increased in persons with higher trait - mindfulness scores.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that without intervention higher trait - mindfulness is associated with
increased physiological
stress reactivity.
Increased volume in this brain region is associated with more optimal development of a number of psychosocial factors (e.g., stress reactivity).15 Links between early responsive parenting and increased volume in the hippocampal region also suggest that the early developmental period is an important time to facilitate responsive parenting practices, especially in high risk families, in order to enhance the parent - child rela

Because at least a subset of CE neonates show a heightened pattern of
reactivity, there may be an
increased likelihood that these infants will be perceived as more difficult by caregivers and that this may also relate to the degree of
stress that a caregiver experiences as a parent.

Chronic early trauma alters children's
stress reactivity and
increases the prevalence of anxiety disorders; yet the neuroendocrine and immune mechanisms underpinning this effect are not fully clear.
Likewise, postnatal maternal depression promotes forms of parenting [13] that enhance
stress reactivity, social withdrawal, and inattention [14 — 16], which in turn predicts an
increased risk for depression and behavioral problems in the offspring [17, 18].
