Psychophysiological reactions to the response phase of the rorschach and 16PF.

30 Aug 2009 In this pilot study, we investigated whether there was a differential psychophysiological response during the beginning, middle, and end of the administration of a performance-based instrument (Rorschach Inkblot Method, RIM; Exner, 2003) versus a ... Read more...

Evidence for a putative biomarker for substance dependence.

30 Aug 2009 Electrodermal response modulation (ERM) reflects the reduction in skin conductance response to an aversive stimulus that is temporally predictable relative to when it is unpredictable. Poor ERM is associated with substance dependence (SD). It was ... Read more...

We can work it out: age differences in relational pronouns, physiology, and behavior in marital conflict.

30 Aug 2009 This study examined the relationship that personal pronouns spoken during a marital conversation have with the emotional qualities of those interactions and with marital satisfaction. Middle-aged and older couples (N = 154) engaged in a 15-min ... Read more...
