Zusammenfassung: Ziel dieser Studie war es, Unterschiede zwischen anhand der Reducer-Augmenter Skala als extrem eingestuften Augmentern (N = 19, Petrie Reducer) und Reducern in elektrokortikalen (EEG), peripher-physiologischen (EDA, EKG) und subjektiven ...
Negative affect caused by depression is known to produce cognitive failures during everyday activities. However, traditional neurobehavioral laboratory paradigms that assess affect-memory interactions are critical with respect to their ecological ...
Abstract.Introduction: Researchers have repeatedly discovered an association between depression and autonomic cardiac dysregulation in adults. However, corresponding data concerning minors are still rare. ...
During recent years, resting heart rate was not considered as a cardiovascular risk factor. However, new evidences have showed that resting heart rate is an important prognostic factor for sudden cardiac death and heart failure in the general population, ...
Zusammenfassung. Die vorliegende Untersuchung soll die Rezeption und Verarbeitung von vier unterschiedlich angstauslösenden Verkehrssicherheits-Werbespots anhand subjektiver Self-Report-Daten und der physiologischen Erfassung von Herzfrequenzänderungen ...
Zusammenfassung. Musik (M) hat nachweisbare Effekte auf Herzfrequenz (HF), Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV) und andere physiologische Parameter. Die Effekte von M auf das Herz-Kreislauf-System sind oft beschrieben, systematische Untersuchungen erst kürzlich ...
Effects of Music on the Cardiovascular System: What is Verified, What Not, What’s New?It is well known that music not only may improve quality of life (QoL) but also have different effects on heart rate (HR) and ...
Abstract. Controlled studies and clinical observations can elucidate the influence of music on blood pressure and heart rate, but do not explain underlying mechanisms. Clarification of contradictory scientific ...
Steering selective attention in tinnitus: an experimental psychophysiological studyAbstract.Theoretical Background: Models of the development, maintenance, and treatment of tinnitus emphasize the role of attention focusing on the ear noise. Questions: ...
Emotional and cardiovascular reactions of couples during a couple-therapeutic intervention: a pilot studyAbstract.Background: The efficacy of marital therapy and distress prevention training for couples is regarded as being well documented. However, ...
Social Skills Training in Virtual Reality for Social Anxiety: Validation of Relevant Interaction SituationsAbstract.Background: Social skills training is an important tool in psychotherapy for social anxiety disorder. The implementation of virtual ...
Abstract For many years psychophysiologists have been interested in stimulus related changes in heart rate and blood pressure. To represent these evoked heart rate and blood pressure patterns, heart rate and blood pressure data have to be transformed into ...
Abstract Effects of maintaining an alert state on event-related brain potentials (ERPs) and evoked cardiovascular responses were examined in an auditory detection task. Subjects were instructed to detect a possible difference in frequency between two ...
Abstract The Polar Vantage XL heart rate monitor provides an ambulatory, inexpensive method of continuously measuring heart rate. To examine the validity of the Polar monitor for measuring heart rate during resting periods and while engaging in two ...
Abstract Control or control-belief is often viewed as being directly instrumental in facilitating active coping in aversive situations, and yet the empirical evidence for the effects of control is inconclusive. In this study we investigated the role of ...
Heart rate has been reported to increase during nausea and has therefore been used as an indicator of motion sickness. However, the relationship between heart rate and subjective ratings of motion sickness has received little attention, and the autonomic ...
Abstract The effects of physical training on autonomic response to acute stress are controversial. In this study, heart rate (HR) and skin conductance level (SCL) were continuously recorded in response to a mental stressor in a sample of elite athletes ...
Abstract The present study analyzes the variations of heart rate (HR) and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) during 60 h of total sleep deprivation (TSD). All variables were evaluated every 2 h in a resting condition, during the ...
