The present study aims to explore whether hair cortisol concentration is associated with explicit stress or implicit stress in female methamphetamine addicts.
Hair samples were collected from 51 female methamphetamine addicts from inpatient addiction treatment programs. Perceived stress was assessed by both explicit and implicit measures through the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and the Implicit Association Test (IAT), respectively.
The positive relationship between hair cortisol concentration with D-scores of the IAT reached statistically significant difference. A marginal correlation between hair cortisol concentration and scores of the PSS was observed. Additionally, linear regression analysis indicated that D-scores of the IAT are strongly predictive of hair cortisol concentration.
Hair cortisol concentration is strongly related to implicit stress but only weakly related with explicit stress.
本研究旨在探讨女性甲基苯丙胺成瘾者的头发皮质醇浓度与显性应激或隐性应激是否相关。
从51名接受住院成瘾治疗项目的女性甲基苯丙胺成瘾者中采集头发样本。分别通过感知压力量表（PSS）和内隐联想测验（IAT），采用显性和隐性测量方法评估感知压力。
头发皮质醇浓度与IAT的D分数之间的正相关达到统计学显著差异。观察到头发皮质醇浓度与PSS分数之间存在边缘相关性。此外，线性回归分析表明，IAT的D分数强烈预测头发皮质醇浓度。
头发皮质醇浓度与隐性应激密切相关，但与显性应激仅存在微弱关联。
