    Study Notes

    1. The immune system derives from white blood cells.
    2. B lymphocytes come from bone marrow and T lymphocytes come from the thymus gland.
    3. Stress can suppress the activity of the immune system via cortisol.
    4. Chronic stress can cause a reduction in B and T cells.
    5. Inescapable shock can also reduce B and T cells.
    6. The removal of the adrenal gland does not cause immune changes to shock.
    7. The immune response to antigen is normal when the adrenal gland is removed.
    8. Keller conducted a study on chronic stress and the immune system in 1983.
    9. Chronic stress can have negative effects on the immune system.
    10. Cortisol plays a role in the relationship between stress and the immune system.
    11. Chronic stress can reduce immune system functioning.
    12. Wounds take longer to heal in caregivers experiencing chronic stress.
    13. During exams, immune system responses weakened in medical students.
    14. Outlets for frustration, a sense of predictability, a perception of life improving, and social support can all modify the stress response.
    15. Prenatal stress can permanently affect metabolism and cortisol levels in adults.
    16. Early exposure to stress programs stress reactivity.
    17. The amygdala is more active when viewing fearful faces.
    18. Psychological stress can be studied through physical and psychological stress tests.
    19. Experimental tests of stress can involve MRI scans and exposure to phobias.
    20. The amygdala is involved in recognizing threats in the environment.
    21. The amygdala responds to threats in the environment.
    22. The body responds to stress via the HPA axis and sympathomedullary system.
    23. The prefrontal cortex regulates the stress response.
    24. PTSD is associated with decreased activity in the prefrontal cortex.
    25. Social anxiety disorder and specific phobia are associated with increased activation in the amygdala.
    26. Stressful events are generally well-remembered, particularly if relevant to the stressor.
    27. Stress enhances consolidation of emotional memories.
    28. Memory retrieval during stress is impaired.
    29. Dopamine release is associated with stress and thrill-seeking behavior.
    30. The way we cope and appraise events affects the extent of the stress response.
