  • Title: Conditioning of skin conductance levels through a combined instrumental-classical conditioning procedure.
    Author: Muraoka MY, Carlson JG.
    Journal: Biofeedback Self Regul; 1991 Sep; 16(3):243-52. PubMed ID: 1932261.
    Abstract:
    A paucity of studies and inconsistent results characterize attempts to instrumentally condition tonic electrodermal activity. The present study was conducted to further explore the classical and instrumental conditioning of skin conductance levels (SCLs) through auditory analogue feedback. Fifty undergraduates were randomly assigned to one of five groups of equal size: instrumental conditioning alone, classical conditioning alone, instrumental and classical conditioning combined, and two control groups. The combined training group achieved significantly higher SCLs relative to the group receiving instrumental conditioning alone.
