Abstract
Hair cortisol and depressive responses increased with stress, but they were decoupled, following distinct trajectories that likely reflected different aspects of stress reactivity. While depressive symptoms correlated with stressor demands and stress perceptions, the longitudinal pattern of hair cortisol suggested that it responded to contextual features related to anticipation, novelty/familiarity, and social evaluative threat.
