Those interested in the relationships between psychological and
physiological functions will again and again be impressed by the
fact that great individual differences and large situational
variability are manifested in psychophysiological data.
Psychophysiology from a differential perspective has been an
enduring theme throughout the history of personality and
temperament research. However, the present book is the first to
bear the word differential in its title. Actually, this monography
is not only concerned with psychophysiological personality
research, but with a much broader program of systematic
investigation. Multivariate research methodology permits one to
operationalize physiological response profiles, both with regard to
lasting differences between persons and the discrimination of
situations. In order to determine functional relationships between
person characteristics and situational demands, that is, to
determine the processes of stimulus-response mediation, one first
needs to systemize these various sources of variance in assessment
models and subsequently partition the observed covariance. A series
of the author's own investigations in the Hamburg and Freiburg
laboratories shows just how fruitful this research approach can be.
