When organisms respond to environment changes, unconscious skin responses {electrodermal response} {electrodermal activity} can happen with orienting response (OR) or to defensive response (DR). Electrical skin activity changes skin potential {endosomatic response} and skin electrical resistance or conductance {exosomatic response}.
biology
Sympathetic nervous system controls electrodermal activity.
Bulbar reticular formation stimulation inhibits electrodermal response. Amygdala removal inhibits skin conductance.
factors: sweat
Sweat affects exosomatic responses.
factors: schizophrenia
Schizophrenia patients can have no or large electrodermal response.
