Figures & data

Figure 1. Study Flow. Each subject will be randomized into two types of seminars within the same topic. The autonomic function measurements, topic knowledge, and emotions will be assessed at baseline. Each seminar session lasts 40 minutes. Autonomic functions (sympathetic, parasympathetic nervous system) will be assessed and measured at baseline as well as throughout both types of seminars using heart rate variability (HRV), sympathetic skin response (SSR), laser Doppler flow (LDF), and pupillometry. Emotions and knowledge’s related topic test will be given out as Profile of Mood States (POMS) as well as pre- and post-test.
