background: adjustment disorder (ajd) is a transient mental health condition emerging after stressful life events. its diagnostic criteria have recently been under revision which led to the development of the adjustment disorder–new module 20 (adnm-20) as a self-report assessment. objective: to identify a threshold value for people at high risk for ajd. methods: as part of a randomized controll...

Alterations in synaptic endocannabinoid signaling are a widespread neurobiological consequence of many in vivo experiences, including stress. Here, we report that stressor salience is critical for bidirectionally modifying presynaptic CB-1 receptor (CB1R) function at hypothalamic GABA synapses controlling the neuroendocrine stress axis in male rats. While repetitive, predictable stressor exposu...

Trauma and stressor related disorders include disorders in which exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is listed explicitly as a diagnostic criterion. These include reactive attachment disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, and adjustment disorders. Psychological distress following exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is quite variable. In some cases, ...

Burnout is an experience relevant not only to psychosoclal professions, but also to technical workIt is predicted that in a technical profession work stressors are related to burnout and that this relationship is moderated by control at work, task requirements. and the quality of team interactionIn a sample of 180 software professionals trom 29 software development projects, stressors were foun...

Concern is growing about the potential effects of interacting multiple stressors, especially as the global climate changes. We provide a comprehensive review of multiple stressor interactions in coral reef ecosystems, which are widely considered to be one of the most sensitive ecosystems to global change. First, we synthesized coral reef studies that examined interactions of two or more stresso...

Disentangling the individual and interactive effects of multiple stressors on microbial communities is a key challenge to our understanding and management of ecosystems. Advances in molecular techniques allow studying microbial communities in situ and with high taxonomic resolution. However, the taxonomic level which provides the best trade-off between our ability to detect multiple-stressor ef...
