Facing Stress
A
person's face can reveal whether he or she is handling stress in a healthy way. That's what Carnegie Mellon psychologist Jennifer S. Lerner and her colleagues found in a study of 92 people. All performed math challenges (such as counting backward by 13) while being informed of every error, goaded to go faster, and told that their scores would reveal their overall intelligence. The researchers checked the participants' heart-rate patterns and levels of salivary cortisol, a stress hormone, and called in experts to analyze videotapes of the subjects' facial expressions. The more fearful people looked during the task, the higher their body's stress reaction-but angrier expressions were associated with a milder response. Although chronic anger contributes to heart disease, the study shows that in situations "in which anger or indignation are justifiable responses, anger is not bad for you" in the short term, Lerner says.
