This study investigates the relationship between stress coping ability, salivary antioxidant capacity (AOC), and trace element concentrations, focusing on zinc (Zn) and potassium (K). A cohort of 73 participants, divided into groups based on stress coping ability (SCA) (“adaptive”, “intermediate”, and “maladaptive”), underwent cognitive tasks while physiological and behavioral data were collected. Saliva samples were analyzed for AOC and trace elements, including Zn, K, total phosphorus (P), and total sulfur (S). Results revealed that individuals with effective stress coping strategies (the “adaptive” group) exhibited significantly higher AOC and Zn levels, along with lower K levels, compared to those with maladaptive coping abilities. Positive correlations were observed between Zn and AOC, while K showed a negative correlation with AOC. Behavioral data indicated that the “maladaptive” group demonstrated a pronounced decline in self-assessment as task difficulty increased, despite similar task performance across groups. These findings suggest that stress coping ability is a stable trait influencing physiological homeostasis, with effective coping associated with enhanced antioxidant defenses and balanced trace element regulation. The study highlights the importance of stress management in maintaining oxidative balance and emotional resilience, offering potential pathways for interventions targeting stress-related physiological and cognitive dysregulation.

It is generally accepted that the basis of social and legal stability in any society is a consensus on vir tue — the fundamental values of proper behavior, ways of maintaining and reproducing them. And, conversely, the destruction of this consensus is a sign of the loss of stability and divergence of positions of social ...

Hypergraphs provide a natural framework for representing neurophysiological interactions distributed across sets of sensors. A key methodological question is how hyperedges should be defined from frequency-resolved electroencephalography/magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG) data. We demonstrate a construction strategy in which hyperedges are obtained from canonical coherence (caCOH), an extension of coherence that estimates coupling between multidimensional signal spaces. To ...

Musical training has a significant impact on brain organization, leading to functional and structural
adaptations that enhance auditory, visual, motor, and cognitive processes. This study investigates how
extensive musical training shapes functional brain connectivity by comparing professional musicians and
non-musicians. Using EEG phase-locking value (PLV) analysis, we examined neural synchronization across
alpha, beta, and gamma frequency ranges during music ...

Abstract
Context and relevance. In the context of accelerated urbanization and a growing disconnect from the natural
environment, there is increasing interest in biophilic attitudes — a system of stable views, beliefs, and
evaluations that reflect a person’s relationship with living nature and shape their psychological well-being and
environmentally responsible behavior. Existing tools for their measurement, such as the ...

Precarious manhood theory (PMT) explains men's compensatory responses to masculinity threats in domains such as affect, aggression, risk-taking, dominance, and social attitudes. While recent meta-analytic evidence suggests that masculinity threat has a small-to-medium average effect, recent preregistered replication work has failed to reproduce some influential masculinity-threat effects in a large representative sample, raising questions about ...
