Progress in Electrodermal Research

Abstract

The book contains chapters by distinguished investigators in the field of electrodermal research activity. The authors review current understanding of the use of electrodermal activity to assess cognitive processes, individual differences in human personality, and processes associated with psychopathology. It . . . provides the state-of-the-art in various fields of basic and applied research—e.g. peripheral effectors theory, methodological issues, central nervous system control of electrodermal activity, personality, psychopathology, and hemispherical asymmetry—thereby illustrating the richness of research with this measure.
