The Role of the Orienting Response in the Anticipation of Information: A Skin Conductance Response Study

Psychophysiology, 1985
ABSTRACTTheoretical positions concerning the role of the orienting response (OR) in information‐processing and attention have viewed the OR either as indexing an active increase in information‐processing efficiency, or as passively reflecting the results of information processing.

Electrodermal responses to discrete stimuli measured by skin conductance, skin potential, and skin susceptance

Skin Research and Technology, 2017
AbstractBackground/aimPresently, electrodermal activity (EDA) is the preferred term for changes in electrical properties of the skin. Change in the skin conductance responses (SCRs) and skin potential responses (SPRs) due to external stimuli have previously been investigated in a number of studies, but very little for skin susceptance responses (SSRs ...

Skin Conductance Responses in Huntington's Chorea Progeny

Psychophysiology, 1981
ABSTRACTTo test the assumption that limbic dysfunctioning in Huntington's Chorea (HC) would be reflected in abnormal skin conductance responses, 25 patients were examined.Only 2 of these patient showed normal skin conductance response. A further sample of 52 first generation, asymptomatic offspring of diagnosed HC patentes were tested. Seventeen of the

An MEG compatible system for measuring skin conductance responses

Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2013
We present the design of a low-cost system for recording galvanic skin conductance responses (SCRs) from humans in a magnetically shielded room (MSR) simultaneously to magnetoencephalography (MEG). Such a system was so far not available to the MEG community.

Experimenter and Subject Sex Effects In the Skin Conductance Response

Psychophysiology, 1974
ABSTRACTThe present study was designed to determine the significance of the experimenter's sex on the subject's skin conductance responsiveness and to ascertain the nature and extent of sex differences in basal skin conductance, skin conductance response (SCR) magnitude, and spontaneous skin resistance (SRR) activity.

First Interval Skin Conductance Responses: Conditioned or Orienting Responses?

Psychophysiology, 1977
ABSTRACTThis paper was concerned primarily with whether or not the first interval response in classical skin conductance conditioning can be interpreted as a response which occurs at least in part as a consequence of the pairing of, or contingency between, a conditioned stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus.

The function of skin conductance response recovery and rise time

Biological Psychology, 1980
The hypothesis that recovery time of the skin conductance response could be considered as a measure of attentional 'openness--closedness' to the environment was investigated by examining the relation of SCR recovery time to cardiac response variables established as measures of attentional stance. The hypothesis was not supported.

Latency of skin conductance responses across stimulus modalities

Psychophysiology, 2018
AbstractReproducibility and methodological robustness are of major concern in research today, also with respect to autonomic measures. Quantification of skin conductance responses (SCRs), for instance, relies on response characteristics such as response onset (i.e., latency), which were established more than four decades ago by using paper‐pencil ...

THE DIFFERENTIAL CONDITIONABILITY OF TWO COMPONENTS OF THE SKIN CONDUCTANCE RESPONSE

Psychophysiology, 1967
ABSTRACTThe dual effector basis of the skin conductance response (SCR) was investigated in an experiment in which responses from both the dorsal and palmar surfaces of the hand were classically conditioned using a delayed, discrimination conditioning paradigm. Orienting (OR), anticipatory (AR) and unconditional responses (UCR) were distinguished on the

Overextinction of the Evoked Skin Conductance Response: An EEG Study

Psychophysiology, 1974
ABSTRACTThe present study was designed to investigate Sokolov's (1963) proposal that overextinction of the orienting response (OR) is related to sleep onset. A series of 80 auditory stimuli was presented to 22 male and female Ss. Although re‐evocation of the skin conductance response (SCR) component of the OR occurred, in the majority of Ss, after 40 ...
