Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The decrease in cortisol production is not cited as a disruptive effect of severe stress on cognitive functioning in the text. In fact, the text notes that severe stress can lead to an increase in cortisol levels, which can have negative effects on cognitive functioning. The other three options (inability to integrate new information, reduced working memory efficiency, and a poorly organized view of options) are all cited in the text as potential disruptive effects of severe stress on cognitive functioning.
