A SKIN RESISTANCE AUDIOMETER

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1950
The greatest need in the field of pure tone audiometry is for a simple, reliable method of testing hearing by an objective response. By such a means one could evaluate hearing thresholds without having to depend on the patient's cooperation. Such a method would be of inestimable value in testing the hearing of infants and young children, particularly ...

CORRELATION OF SKIN POTENTIAL AND SKIN RESISTANCE MEASURES

Psychophysiology, 1969
ABSTRACTSimultaneous measurements of skin potential (SP) and skin resistance (SR) obtained from 20 male and 20 female adult subjects during 2 sessions held 2 to 9 days apart were used in studying (1) the correlation of change measurements and prestimulus level in the two measures, and (2) the amount of correlation between SP and SR using both simple ...

A Direct Comparison of the Skin Conductance and Skin Resistance Methods

Psychophysiology, 1979
ABSTRACTThe purpose of the present study was a direct comparison between simultaneous recordings of skin conductance and skin resistance. Sixty male students received a series of 30 white noise stimuli, while measures were taken continuously from four sites on the palmar surfaces of the fingers.

Racial Differences in Skin Resistance

Science, 1963
In two laboratories utilizing different age subjects and recording techniques, Negro subjects had higher skin resistance than a comparable white population. There was no difference in other autonomic variables or autonomic reactivity. Reasons for this racial difference may offer a better physiological explanation for galvanic skin resistance.

Skin Resistance Recording in the Unrestrained Rat

Science, 1962
The level of basal skin resistance is proposed as a measure of motivation. It is relatively simple to obtain and can be measured concurrently with behavior of interest to the experimenter. The technique described requires a grid floor, but the assessment procedure does not affect the organism's state because of the subthreshold measuring current that ...

Thermal Shock Resistance of Skin Tissue

Journal of Medical Systems, 2010
Understanding the mechanisms of skin behavior under thermal shock is crucial for medical treatments. However, no reasonable criteria are available for the maximum thermal loadings that skin tissue can survive. To address this, in this paper we analyzed thermal and neural behaviors of skin tissue exposed to thermal loadings by introducing the thermal ...

Resistive electronic skin

Journal of Materials Chemistry C, 2017
Devices made from traditional conductive bulk materials using complex microfabrication methods often are restricted to being rigid and in some cases, flexible but not strethcable.

Skin Resistance and Galvanic Skin Response

Archives of General Psychiatry, 1962
The convenience of the galvanic skin response (GSR) and basal skin resistance (R) as indicators of autonomic activity has led to their widespread application in psychological and pharmacological investigations since the late 19th century, but the many fundamental controversies to be found in the literature testify to the questionable reliability of ...

Seasonal variation of skin resistance to irritants

British Journal of Dermatology, 1989
In order to investigate a possible seasonal variation in the skin response to irritants, 17 healthy volunteers were patch tested with sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) and nonanoic acid in the winter and summer. The response to these irritants was quantified by visual scoring, measurement of transepidermal water loss, measurement of electrical conductance ...

AN ELECTRICALLY OPERATED SKIN RESISTANCE SWITCH

Psychophysiology, 1971
ABSTRACTA touch operated switch is described that uses a simple skin resistance detection circuit. This ‘isometric push‐button” type switch has no moving parts, is noiseless, and absorbs the minimum of energy from the subject. It was primarily designed for psychophysiological experiments where an operant response is required.
