A pilot study on the suitability of the Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) as a measure of emotional state
The Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) is a measure of change in the electrodermal properties resulted from the change in the sweat glands activity in response to the modulation of the autonomic nervous system. For this reason it has begun to be of interest as a signal that can be used to monitor …

Chemical Profiling of Ballistic Materials - Analysis of organic gunshot residue
Gunshot residue (GSR) is a complex chemical mixture that is created during the discharge of a firearm. Its detection and interpretation play a crucial role in the investigation of firearm incidents. Current GSR analysis is limited to inorganic GSR (IGSR), however, the evidential value could be …

Lead-Free Gunshot Residues as Forensic Evidence
<p>The analysis of gunshot residue (GSR) has been forensically relevant for many years and several methods are well characterized in scientific literature. However, the manufacture and distribution of lead-free alternatives to small caliber firearms ammunition is increasing rapidly as these types …

Predicting performance using galvanic skin response
… signal known as galvanic skin response (GSR) allows such a prediction. We conduct an experiment where subjects answer arithmetic questions under low and high stress conditions while having their GSR monitored. Using only the GSR measured under low stress conditions, we are able to predict …

Gender Representation in Kenyan Journalism: Analyzing Gender-Sensitive Reporting Pedagogy and Faculty-Student Perspectives in Journalism Programs
… the integration of gender-sensitive reporting (GSR) approaches in journalism education across different Kenyan public and private universities and colleges. There's a broad corpus on gender inclusion in the media; however, little research has examined structural issues in integrating …

Galvanic skin response variations of neurotics low/high on extraversion to music
… two types of music (exciting vs relaxing) on the GSR responses of male and female neurotics low/high on extraversion. Eysenck's and Gray's views on the basic structure of personality dimensions were also tested to enlighten their components in relation to the influence of music as a variable. …

Machine Learning Approach to Forecast Global Solar Radiation Time Series
… grid by forecasting the Global Solar Radiation (GSR) on a localization where a Photovoltaic (PV) system is connected. This thesis tries to address the issue using Machine Learning (ML) techniques. This eases the generation scheduling task. The work developed on this thesis is focused on exploring …

The use of serface fuintionalised silica nano-particlate powders for the identification of gunshot residues from fingerprints
Gunshot residue (GSR) mixture consists of partially burned particles of propellant and characteristic particles of elements originating from the primer, bullet, propellant and some additives in the propellant. Since Harrison and Gillory [1] drew forensic scientists’ attention to the fact that GSR …

Insulin Signaling & Glucose Metabolism in Glycolytic & Oxidative Muscle of High Fat Fed & Endurance Trained
… leading to blunted rates of glycogen synthesis (GSR) and reduced glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) content in all muscles fiber types (MFTs) of HF-fed rodents. Conversely, CEE increased insulin sensitivity, increased GSR and G6P content. Our work has shown that hyperlipidemia causes all MFTs to develop …

Skin conductance and reaction time correlates of learning disability in children
Skin conductances and galvanic skin responses (GSRs) of learning disabled (LD) children and controls were compared during an habituation task and a simple reaction time task, each preceded by a rest period. The two tasks were methodologically equivalent except that only the latter required an …

Is Fusarium meridionale more adapted as Gibberella Ear and Stalk Rot pathogen of maize than F. graminearum? Comparative epidemiology and toxigenicity
Gibberella ear (GER) and stalk rot (GSR) diseases of maize in Brazil are caused mainly by Fusarium meridionale, a species belonging to the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC). Another species within this complex, F. graminearum, is second in importance on maize but is the main species …
