All About EDA Part 2: Components of Skin Conductance

Last time we talked about the significance of measuring electrodermal activity, and how it is collected. Now we can start looking at the resulting waveform and how to extract meaningful information from it.   Scaling EDA to Microsiemens MindWare applications expect incoming data to be in volts (with the exception […]

All About EDA Part 1: Introduction to Electrodermal Activity

All About Electrodermal Activity EDA stands for Electrodermal Activity, and is the measurement of changes in the electrical properties of the skin. When a person sweats, the conductivity of their skin changes, and activation of eccrine sweat glands is an established indicator of sympathetic nervous system arousal. Therefore, by measuring […]
