Citation Stress task Seed Region Stressor-evoked changes and physiology
Gianaros et al. 2008 Stroop interference task Amygdala ↑Mean arterial pressure reactivity associated with ↑amygdala functional connectivity with the pgACC, pons, orbitofrontal cortex, insula, hippocampus, caudate, middle temporal lobe, occipital cortex, and cerebellum
Hermens et al. 2011 Aversive pictures Independent component analysis ↑Cortisol and alpha-amyalse responses associated with stronger ‘salience network’ interconnectivity
Quaedflieg et al. 2015 Imaging Maastricht Acute Stress Task Amygdala Cortisol responders had ↑amygdala connectivity with anterior hippocampal complex and parahippocampal gyrus
Wager et al. 2009 Speech preparation task PFC/ACC activity related to ↑PAG and thalamus activity and heart rate reactivity
