Workshop: Physiological measurements with Biopac and Acqknowledge

Instructor: Juan Olvido Perea Garcia

Friday 06.12.2024, 16:00-18:00 (CET)

Attendants to this workshop will be briefly introduced to physiological measurements; what they actually are and how they can be interpreted in psychological research. The focus will be however on collecting these data using Biopac hardware. We will develop a data-collection pipeline from start to finish. The measurements we will be collecting are blood flow (with photoplethysmograph), electro-conductivity of the skin, and breathing rate. We will also employ electrocardiogram as synchronizing signal to demonstrate how the apparatus can be flexibly utilized to fulfill functions beyond what the manufacturer intends. At the end of the workshop, participants will take turns to collect data from one another.
