Salivary OT concentrations. Change in log-transformed salivary OT levels (pg/ml) for 24 participants (minutes between samples M = 85; SD = 9). Four participants were unable to provide adequate saliva samples and were not included in the salivary analyses. a Change in salivary OT following nasal OT administration. b Change in salivary OT following nasal-PLC administration. Because participant 10 was a significant outlier (change in OT concentration after PLC = − 723.59), their data are not included in the graph above. c *p < .05. Salivary samples collected after OT administration showed significantly greater OT concentrations compared to those following the PLC nasal spray, t = 3. 57; p = 0.0016
