在大学赛季的六场比赛中，测量了六名大学网球运动员的睾酮和皮质醇。大多数比赛前睾丸激素水平都有所上升，赛前睾丸激素水平最高的球员在比赛前的情绪改善最积极。比赛结束后，胜利者的平均睾丸激素水平相对于失败者有所上升，特别是那些在胜利后情绪非常积极并且对自己的表现评价很高的胜利者。睾酮水平上升的获胜者在下一场比赛前睾酮水平较高，而睾酮水平下降的失败者在下一场比赛前睾酮水平较低。皮质醇与输赢无关，但它与种子（顶级球员皮质醇较低）有关，随着赛季的进行，皮质醇通常会下降。这些结果与生物社会地位理论相一致。
Testosterone and cortisol were measured in six university tennis players across six matches during their varsity season. Testosterone rose just before most matches, and players with the highest prematch testosterone had the most positive improvement in mood before their matches. After matches, mean testosterone rose for winners relative to losers, especially for winners with very positive moods after their victories and who evaluated their own performance highly. Winners with rising testosterone had higher testosterone before their next match, in contrast to losers with falling testosterone, who had lower testosterone before their next match. Cortisol was not related to winning or losing, but it was related to seed (top players having low cortisol), and cortisol generally declined as the season progressed. These results are consistent with a biosocial theory of status.
