Electrodermal activity is one of the most frequently used psychophysiological evaluations in psychology research. Based on the 1992 edition of this work Electrodermal Activity covers advances in the field since the first publication in 1992. The current volume includes updated information on brain imaging techniques such as PET and fMRI, which provide further insight into the brain mechanisms underlying EDA. In addition, this volume is able to describe more reliably hypotheses that have been successfully tested since the first publication.
Electrodennal activity refers to electrical changes across the skin in areas of the body that are psychologically responsive. The eccrine sweat glands are the primary detenninant of electrodennal activity, and these are psychologically active especially on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. As a matter of convenience, electrodennal activity is most often recorded from the palms. Over the years, the electrodennal response has been known as the psychogalvanic reflex, the galvanic skin response, the skin resistance response, the skin conductance response, and the skin potential response. The tenns psychogalvanic reflex and galvanic skin response have fallen into disuse among scientists, but are still to be found in psychology text books. of its early discovery, ease of measurement, and often easily observable Because response to experimental manipulations, the recording of electrodennal activity is one of the most frequently used methods in psychophysiology. Indeed, in the early years following the founding of the Society for Psychophysiological Research, electrodennal research so dominated the field that people worried that the society was simply an electrodennal society. Although other psychophysiological techniques have emerged as equally strong contributors to psychophysiology, electrodennal research continues to be important throughout the world. As a result of this massive research investment, there has been great progress in understanding electrodennal phenomena, as well as major advances in recording methods since the phenomenon was discovered.

Die Messung der elektrodermalen Aktivitat stellt wohl die mit Abstand am haufigsten verwendete Methode zur Erfassung physiologischer Begleiterscheinungen psychischer Vorgange dar. Mit dieser Monographie wird erstmals eine Gesamtdarstellung vorgelegt: in ihr sind die anatomischen, physiologischen, physikalischen und psychologischen Grundlagen integriert, die Methodik sowie - einfuhrungsartig - die Verwendung elektrodermaler Messtechniken in den wichtigsten Anwendungsbereichen der beteiligten Disziplinen beschrieben. Das Buch ist als Standardwerk anzusehen. Es informiert uber zentrale und periphere Mechanismen der elektrodermalen Aktivitat sowie entsprechenden Modellvorstellungen. Es vermittelt die Grundlagen der Messtechniken, die Methoden der Erfassung, Registrierung und Weiterverarbeitung elektrodermaler Phanomene. Der Methodenteil ist mit konkreten Anleitungen versehen und wird durch einen Beitrag von E. Thom zur computerunterstutzten Auswertung erganzt. Der umfangreiche Anwendungsteil behandelt schwerpunktmassig die Gebiete der allgemeinen, differentiellen und klinischen Psychophysiologie, zusatzlich arbeitspsychologische und forensische Anwendungen. Auch auf die Einsatzmoglichkeiten in der Neurologie, Psychiatrie, Dermatologie und inneren Medizin wird eingegangen."
