Stress and cognition.

摘要: Stress can affect cognition in many ways, with the outcome (i.e., facilitating or impairing) depending on a combination of factors related to both stress and cognitive function under study. Among identified as particularly relevant define effects are intensity magnitude stress, its origin whether triggered by task externally), duration acute chronically delivered). At end, specific operation (e.g., implicit explicit memory, long-term working goal-directed habit learning) information processing phases learning, consolidation, retrieval) essential well effects. The emerging view is that mild tends facilitate function, memory simple declarative tasks when load not excessive. Exposure high very acutely (whether elicited experienced before being trained tested task) impairs formation memories and, more generally, those require complex, flexible reasoning (as typically observed for hippocampus- prefrontal cortex-related functions) while improving performance well-rehearsed reported amygdala-dependent conditioning striatum-related processes). In addition these general principles, there important individual differences impact gender age influencing factors.
