Asymmetry of electrodermal activity in man
نویسنده
چکیده
Skin conductance responses were examined bilaterally in a group of 12 normal subjects. Ten of them were right-handed and two were left-handed. All right-handed subjects exhibited asymmetry in skin conductance response during verbal-numerical and visual-imagery tasks. With the visual activity, larger responses were found in the left hand; while during the verbal task. larger responses were recorded from the right hand. The results were interpreted as evidence of hemispheric asymmetry of the electrodermal activity orienting response control mechanisms.

Bilateral Electrodermal Activity and Psychoticism: Epq-r P Score Correlates with Scl and Eeg Asymmetry
Several clinical studies have reported that schizophrenics show higher electrodermal activity (SCL and SCR) on their right compared to their left hand (R>L). According to Eysenck's personality model, schizophrenia is located at the extreme pole of the psychoticism dimension (P). Thus, it could be hypothesized that normal Ss with high P scores will also show a R>L pattern, especially in comparis...

متن کاملMultiple Arousal Theory and Daily-Life Electrodermal Activity Asymmetry
Using “big data” from sensors worn continuously outside the lab, researchers have observed patterns of objective physiology that challenge some of the long-standing theoretical concepts of emotion and its measurement. One challenge is that emotional arousal, when measured as sympathetic nervous system activation through electrodermal activity, can sometimes differ significantly across the two h...
متن کاملWhat does electrodermal activity tell us about prognosis in the schizophrenia spectrum?
Various dysfunctions in electrodermal activity (EDA) have been found in schizophrenic patients. The present paper reviews evidence that the electrodermal dysfunctions may carry prognostic information regarding subsequent symptoms, as well as social and occupational outcome. Although the findings are not entirely consistent, heightened electrodermal activity as indicated by frequent orienting re...
