Hi David,
Thank you for the reproducible example!
Try
> do.call(rbind, auc_stress)
cortisol amylase
2 919.05 6834.80
3 728.25 24422.05
4 2106.00 25908.35
6 636.40 12209.75
7 1925.95 4749.25
> do.call(rbind, auc_control)
cortisol amylase
2 604.90 2458.00
4 587.65 29954.55
6 493.60 13833.80
7 1211.00 4932.35
