Burnupena cincta and Fusus verruculatus are two whelks which inhabit the intertidal zones of the Cape Peninsula shore. Their respiratory pigments, or haemocyanins, are morphologically similar in structure (Figs. 1 and 2) and appear in the electron microscope as short cylindrical rods about 34 nm in diameter and 36 nm high. Viewed side-on the molecules show regular banding suggesting a structure composed of six equidistant rings of sub-units. Occasionally the particles have the appearance of possessing a central “belt” in the position of the 3rd and 4th rows of sub-units. End-on views of the haemocyanin molecules show a circular contour with a dense outer ring and a less dense inner ring in which 10 definite sub-units may frequently be distinguished. A number of molecules display an extra central inner component which appears either as a diffuse plug or as a discrete ring-shaped core ± 8 nm in diameter.

Conscious appraisals of stress, or stress states, are an important aspect of human performance. This article presents evidence supporting the validity and measurement characteristics of a short multidimensional self-report measure of stress state, the Short Stress State Questionnaire (SSSQ; Helton, 2004 ). The SSSQ measures task engagement, distress, and worry. A confirmatory factor analysis of the SSSQ using data pooled from multiple samples suggests the SSSQ does have a three factor structure and post-task changes are not due to changes in factor structure, but to mean level changes (state changes). In addition, the SSSQ demonstrates sensitivity to task stressors in line with hypotheses. Different task conditions elicited unique patterns of stress state on the three factors of the SSSQ in line with prior predictions. The 24-item SSSQ is a valid measure of stress state which may be useful to researchers interested in conscious appraisals of task-related stress.
