Predicting performance using galvanic skin response
… Here we show that the biological 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 …

Galvanic skin response variations of neurotics low/high on extraversion to music
… 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. Thirty …

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 …

Scared to death: an examination of underlying terror following death awareness
… to experience terror. The current research used Galvanic Skin Response and a battery of self-report measures (e.g. negative affect, stress, fear, distress, etc.) to attempt to provide evidence of potential terror. The results were partially confirmatory suggesting that although mortality salience …

Pain and Principle: The Effects of Nociceptive Stimuli on Moral Decision Making
… recorded both self-report pain intensity and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) as a separate measure of autonomic activation under a cold pressor task using a sample of 122 undergraduate participants. Recorded pain and physiological data was compared to rates of utilitarian decision making in the …

Do Different Music Genres Differentially Affect Autonomic Activity? How Music and Sound Affect Autonomic Activity Aroused by Visual Stimuli
… autonomic nervous system activity (heart rate, galvanic skin response) while viewing visual stimuli in a sample of college students. All participants listened to the same songs and music genres and viewed the same International Affective Picture System (IAPS) images. Autonomic nervous system …

The psychophysiology of risk processing and decision making at a regional stock exchange
… or emotion. I study the role of physiological responses in the decision-making process within the realm of financial markets, where both the environment and decisions-trades-are measurable. In an experiment performed on a regional stock exchange, my collaborators and I record six different …

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ACCEPTANCE AND COMMITMENT THERAPY AND A MINDFULNESS-BASED THERAPY WITH PARENTS OF INDIVIDUALS DIAGNOSED WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
… scores. In addition to the self-report measures, Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) was assessed at pre-scheduled times throughout the course of the experiment for participants that consented to provide it. Results of Experiment 1 were indicative of statistically significant differences with respect to …

Manipulation of Cognitive Load in Simulation-Based Medical Education
… analogue scale (VAS), and measurement of the galvanic skin response (GSR) are able to reliably and accurately measure cognitive load during SBME. Five separate experimental conditions are reported, and self-reported VAS and GSR measurements of cognitive load are compared before and after …

Cold pressor pain and psychophysiological activation in high and low pain catastrophizers
… pressor task. Participants’ heart rate (HR) and galvanic skin response (GSR) were recorded during periods of baseline (3 minutes), pain induction (1 minute), and pain recovery (10 minutes). The Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) was completed following the recovery period. Results …
