Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones(荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the love hormone, which goes down at the same time.After the girls finished the problems, some of them got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didnt see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well theyd done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but instead watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins.Finally, the girls hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to reduce the childrens anxietybut, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on reducing the girls stress levels.So, no matter how old you are, if youre feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.（1）If a girl is under stress, .
