  ABSTRACT: This proof of concept study assessed student cortisol levels under three environs: 1) alone; 2) same-sex setting; and 3) mixed-sex setting after completing a cognitive task. The results indicated that both males and females demonstrated increased levels in the same-sex environs compared to the other environs. The relevant issue for educators is whether this response is adaptive. Implications of these findings are discussed.
