The pupil as a measure of emotional arousal and autonomic activationPsychophysiology - Tập 45 Số 4 - Trang 602-607 - 2008
Margaret M. Bradley, Laura Miccoli, Miguel A. Escrig, Peter J. Lang
AbstractPupil diameter was monitored during picture viewing to assess effects of hedonic valence and emotional arousal on pupillary responses. Autonomic activity (heart rate and skin conductance) was concurrently measured to determine whether pupillary changes are mediated by parasympathetic or sympathetic activation. Following an initial light reflex, pupillary ch...... hiện toàn bộ
Significance Testing of Difference PotentialsPsychophysiology - Tập 28 Số 2 - Trang 240-244 - 1991
Donald Guthrie, Jennifer S. Buchwald
ABSTRACTThis note provides a statistical‐graphical method for the evaluation of the statistical significance of difference potentials from a group of subjects, and for the comparison of difference potentials between two groups. A table of the lengths of statistically significant intervals for various sampling interval lengths, numbers of subjects, and autocorrelati...
The Continuing Problem of False Positives in Repeated Measures ANOVA in Psychophysiology: A Multivariate SolutionPsychophysiology - Tập 24 Số 4 - Trang 479-486 - 1987
Michael W. Vasey, Julian F. Thayer
ABSTRACTViolation of the validity assumptions of repeated measures analysis of variance continues to be a problem in psychophysiology. Such violation results in positive bias for those tests involving the repeated measures factor(s), Recently it has been shown that the tests of simple interactions and multiple comparisons are even more vulnerable to bias (Boik. 198...... hiện toàn bộ
Aging and the Simon taskPsychophysiology - Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 100-110 - 2002
Rob H. J. van der Lubbe, Rolf Verleger
A visual Simon task was used to study the influence of aging on visuospatial attention and inhibitory control processes. Responses were much slower for elderly than for young participants. The delay in trials in which stimulus and response side did not correspond as compared to when they did correspond (the Simon effect) was larger for older people, even after correcting for general slowin...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of caffeine on selective attention in well‐rested and fatigued subjectsPsychophysiology - Tập 31 Số 6 - Trang 525-534 - 1994
Monicque M. Lorist, J. Snel, Albert Kok, G. Mulder
AbstractEffects of caffeine were studied in a visual focused selective search task in well‐rested and fatigued subjects. A dose of 200 + 50 mg caffeine or placebo, dissolved in decaffeinated coffee, was administered in a double‐blind and deceptive fashion. The task was to detect a target letter on one diagonal of a visual display designated as relevant and ignore s...... hiện toàn bộ
A neurophysiological deficit in early visual processing in schizophrenia patients with auditory hallucinationsPsychophysiology - Tập 49 Số 9 - Trang 1168-1178 - 2012
Jürgen Kayser, Craig E. Tenke, Christopher J. Kroppmann, Daniel M. Alschuler, Shiva Fekri, Roberto Gil, L. Fredrik Jarskog, Jill Harkavy‐Friedman, Gerard E. Bruder
AbstractExisting 67‐channel event‐related potentials, obtained during recognition and working memory paradigms with words or faces, were used to examine early visual processing in schizophrenia patients prone to auditory hallucinations (AH, n... hiện toàn bộ
Slow Cortical Potentials Under Conditions of UncontrollabilityPsychophysiology - Tập 16 Số 4 - Trang 374-380 - 1979
Brigitte Rockstroh, Thomas Elbert, Werner Lutzenberger, Niels Birbaumer
ABSTRACTThe present experiment investigates the influence of an unexpected change from an escape paradigm to uncontrollability on slow cortical potentials (SCPs) and autonomic responses (heart rate, skin conductance, and EMG). Two groups of 10 male students each participated in a reaction time experiment; subjects heard one of two warning stimuli (WS) of 6 sec dura...... hiện toàn bộ
Assessment of the role of the cochlear latency effect in lateralization of click sounds in humansPsychophysiology - Tập 46 Số 4 - Trang 797-806 - 2009
Bülent Özmen, Pekcan Ungan
AbstractInteraural time and intensity disparities (ITD and IID) are the two cues to sound lateralization. “Time‐only” hypothesis claims that an IID is first converted to an interaural afferent delay (Δt), and is then processed by the central ITD mechanism, rendering a separate IID processor unnecessary. We tested this hypothesis by assess...... hiện toàn bộ
