EDA SCR Analysis Guide for Psychological Experiments updated

Electrodermal Activity (EDA) is an increasingly important variable in psychological science. Refinements in analysis techniques and methods of handling EDA data and making it fit for final analysis and interpretation follow ongoing improvements in technology, methodology, and reporting. Such advancements also leave room for some controversies over how EDA should be analyzed in given circumstances. […]

Electrical Stimulators for Physiological Research – BIOPAC Blog

Any physiological measurement is concerned with the subject of stimulus and response. Highly-controlled electrical stimulation capability can provide a unique tool for life science researchers to discern sensory function and associated physiological responses in living subjects.
