+ Adrenal glands play an important role in response to stress. Without corticosteroids response would not take place (Tyrell and Baxter, cant produce corticosteroids=given additional ones to survive, suggets physiological explanations are accurate.)
- Ignores individual differences (Mason, compared reactions of stressors, different patterns of adrenaline and noradrenaline secretion in differnet people. People react differently.)
-Gender differences (Taylor et al, women respond with 'tend and befriend' as they produce more oxytocin)
-Most research is on men therefore it is androcentric
