In an attempt to separate the somatic and mental components of stress, groups of young male volunteers underwent running exercises and sauna baths, and roughly one year later had the same experiences recalled under hypnosis. In addition, experiments involving mental stress in the form of mental arithmetic were performed. A variety of physiological and biochemical parameters was measured on each occasion. Results for cardiovascular responses, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, cortisol, testosterone, androstenedione, prolactin and growth hormone are reported. It is concluded that the mental component of combined mental and somatic stress may be separated from the somatic component by hypnotic suggestion. The response during hypnotic suggestion of the stress is usually of less but sometimes of the same magnitude as that obtained during the actual stress. Occasionally the response goes in the opposite direction during hypnotic suggestion as compared to the real situation. The individual responses vary considerably between individuals. The hormones most sensitive to mental stress are growth hormone, androstenedione, cortisol, renin and angiotensin II. In the present study, mental stress had a depressing effect, if any, on plasma prolactin. Hypnosis in itself has no effect on plasma hormones in unstressed subjects compared to the normal diurnal variations.
为了分离压力的躯体和心理成分，几组年轻男性志愿者进行了跑步锻炼和桑拿浴，大约一年后，在催眠状态下回忆相同的经历。此外，还进行了以心算形式的心理压力实验。每次都测量了各种生理和生化参数。报告了心血管反应、肾素 - 血管紧张素 - 醛固酮、皮质醇、睾酮、雄烯二酮、催乳素和生长激素的结果。得出的结论是，通过催眠暗示，心理和躯体联合应激的心理成分可以与躯体成分分离。催眠暗示期间的应激反应通常比实际应激期间获得的反应小，但有时幅度相同。与实际情况相比，偶尔在催眠暗示期间反应会朝相反方向发展。个体之间的反应差异很大。对心理压力最敏感的激素是生长激素、雄烯二酮、皮质醇、肾素和血管紧张素II。在本研究中，心理压力对血浆催乳素即使有影响也是抑制作用。与正常的昼夜变化相比，催眠本身对未受应激的受试者的血浆激素没有影响。
