Schematic of basic and derived measures of HPA-axis activity to a standardized psychosocial stressor in marmosets (adapted with permission; French et al., 2012). Baseline = mean first-void cortisol concentration from Days 1–3 (stressor occurred on Day 3). Post = mean first-void cortisol concentration from Days 4–6. Reactivity = maximum cortisol concentration during stressor—Baseline. Regulation = Post—Baseline. Area Under Curve-ground (AUCg) = areaunder the cortisol response curve with respect to a cortisol concentration of 0 µg/mg creatinine. AUCi = area under the cortisol response curve with respect to Baseline. aAdministration of oral OXTA or saline; bAdministration of intranasal Pro8-OXT, Leu8-OXT, or saline; c30-min videotaped observation; dReunion with pair-mate in home enclosure.
