Purpose Optimism, a personality trait defined as holding general positive beliefs regarding the future, has been associated to improved physical health and longevity. One of the underlying mechanisms may be a reduced physiological stress response. Previous studies found that optimism was related to a lower blood pressure response to experimental stress and to a lower cortisol awakening response (CAR). It remains to be determined whether optimism per se, the associated difference in health behaviors (e.g. physical activity, eating and sleeping behavior) or another third variable is responsible for attenuating the physiological stress response. The aim of the present study was to clarify the causal status of optimism in relation to cortisol responsivity to stress.
