Abstract

The present study was designed to investigate the possible effect of moving sound stimulation on Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) in psychosomatic patients. Sixteen volunteers (psychosomatic = 8, healthy controls = 8) were exposed to a moving or stationary sound of same acoustic structure while GSR was monitored. Results indicated that moving sound produces a significant reduction of arousal in psychosomatic patients.
