The Broad purpose of research in Applied Psychophysiology is to develop a further understanding of the intricate dynamic between mind and body. This can be accomplished through the use of sensitive bio-physical monitoring equipment such as: ECG (cardiogram), EEG (electroencephalogram), Heart Rate Variability, SpO2 (blood oxygenation), BP, Respiration and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) also known as electro-dermal response (EDR).
Areas of current research focus are:
- The Examination of Physiologic Response to a Subliminal Emotive Message- Nearing Completion!!
- The Use of Skin Conductance Measurement for Identification of Full Return to Baseline Wakefulness Post Trance
Future Research Concentration:
- High Frequency (16Khz and above) Audio Stimulation and its Effect on Brain Wave Entrainment
