Abstract
A neuroendocrine correlate of interpersonal trust is relatively unknown. We investigated the relationship between an interpersonal trust-related personality (General Trust Scale) and cortisol elevation induced by social stress in 20 men. Spearman's rank order correlation analysis revealed a significant negative correlation between social stress-induced cortisol elevation and General Trust Scale. The present results indicate subjects with higher degrees of interpersonal trust have lower levels of neuroendocrine response to social stress.
