Acute stress is a physiological condition that may induce several neural dysfunctions with significant impact on life quality. Accordingly, it would be important to monitor in everyday unobtrusively and inexpensively. In this paper, we presented new methodological pipeline recognize acute conditions using electrodermal activity (EDA) exclusively. Particularly, combined rigorous robust model (cv...

BACKGROUND Better understanding of acute stress responses is important for revision of DSM-5. However, the latent structure and relationship between different aspects of acute stress responses haven't been clarified comprehensively. Bifactor item response model may help resolve this problem. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to develop a statistical model of acute stress responses, based...

In this paper, we introduce the notions of prime state filters, obstinate state filters, and primary state filters in state residuated lattices and study some properties of them. Several characterizations of these state filters are given and the prime state filter theorem is proved. In addition, we investigate the relations between them.

The aim of the study was to analyse effects of psychological stress on the neural processing of visceral stimuli in healthy women. The brain functional magnetic resonance imaging blood oxygen level-dependent response to non-painful and painful rectal distensions was recorded from 14 healthy women during acute psychological stress and a control condition. Acute stress was induced with a modified...

Stress has recently been baptized as the black death of the 21st century, which illustrates its threat to current health standards. This article proposes biofeedback systems as a means to reduce stress. A concise state-ofthe-art introduction on biofeedback systems is given. The field of mental health informatics is introduced. A compact state-of-the-art introduction on stress (reduction) is pro...

This research provided a preliminary investigation of how variations in trait and state hope are associated with positive adaptation to stress in later adulthood. Trait hope and neuroticism were measured by questionnaires and state hope, stress, and negative emotions were assessed daily for 45 days. Results from multilevel random coefficient modeling analyses suggested that daily hope provides ...

The mechanical behavior of freestanding gold membranes 0.5 micron thick with and without passivation layers was studied with a membrane deflection experiment. Membrane width was varied from 2.5 to 20 microns to investigate size effects. The presence of the passivation layer had the effect of reducing the membrane strength. Yield stress, as well as fracture strain and stress, were all found to b...
