Discovering and understanding what motivates humans to produce better results has intrigued many researchers. Many researchers have explored the psychophysiological processes that drive our behavior. Here are some recent studies that have used BIOPAC systems to research motivation… Motivation and Pleasure Deficits Undermine the Benefits of Social Affiliation in Psychosis. Blanchard, J. J., Smith, J. […]

The mind and body work together in many ways and psychophysiology research provides insight to these connections. BIOPAC has a variety of systems to power your emotion, arousal, stress, cognitive assessment, group interaction, startle, and other psychophysiology research. Here are some recent studies that have used BIOPAC systems for psychophysiological research… Skin conductance, facial EMG, […]

BIOPAC offers complete solutions for Consumer Neuroscience and Neuroeconomics applications when recording physiological signals almost anywhere, including: the lab, during fMRI, a workplace environment, virtual reality scenarios, in a subject’s home, or for truly mobile applications where long-term monitoring is required.  Dispositional pessimism is related to reduced respiratory sinus arrhythmia reactivity to a psychosocial stressor. Neuroscience […]

Whether using specialized equipment, performing repetitive tasks, or simply going about our daily work routine, the effects of design in our environment as well as the tools we use and the way we use them can impact our health, work performance, and quality of life. Here are a few studies that have recorded and analyzed […]

Our response to the stimuli our brains are bombarded with daily can easily be recorded using averaged evoked potentials (EP). EP can provide a wealth of information about our psychophysiological states. Here are some recent evoked potentials citations… The effect of elevated muscle pain on neuromuscular fatigue during exercise.  Eur J Appl Physiol 122, 113–126. Norbury, […]

AcqKnowledge is an interactive, versatile software program that allows you to manage data in real time. Perform complex data acquisition, stimulation, triggering and analyses using intuitive navigation. Here are some recent AcqKnowledge citations… The nature of vicarious embarrassment. Journal of Business Research, 153, 355-364. Ziegler, A. H., Allen, A. M., Peloza, J., & Norris, J. I.
