通过比较高中男女生在2-3小时的常规学习(对照条件)和6小时的高考(应激条件)中的神经内分泌和心理功能,研究了适应和应对的性别差异。在控制条件下,性别差异是轻微的,不显着。在检查应激期间,两种性别动物的皮质醇、肾上腺素[肾上腺素,E]、去甲肾上腺素[去甲肾上腺素]和3-甲氧基-4-羟基苯基乙二醇(MOPEG)的尿排泄量均增加,但雄性组的尿排泄量始终较大,E和MOPEG的尿排泄量也显著增加。男女在考试中表现同样出色,但自我报告显示,成功和自信的感觉在男性中很常见,而不适和失败的感觉在女性群体中占主导地位。高不适与男性的表现不佳,但与女性的表现良好。
Sex differences in adaptation and coping were studied by comparing neuroendocrine and psychological functions in male and female high-school students during 2-3 h of routine school work (control condition) and a 6-h matriculation examination (stress condition). In the control condition sex differences were slight and nonsignificant. During examination stress, the urinary excretion of cortisol, adrenaline [epinephrine, E], noradrenaline [norepinephrine] and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethylene glycol (MOPEG) increased in both sexes, but to a consistently greater extent in the male group, significantly so for E and MOPEG. Both sexes performed equally well in the examination, but self-reports showed that feelings of success and confidence were common among males, whereas feelings of discomfort and failure dominated in the female group. High discomfort correlated with poor performance in the males but with good performance in the females.
