This may indicate that the use of lie detectors relying on skin conductivity gives psychopaths an advantage that non-psychopaths do not have in criminal investigations.

The experiment was a success--up to two-thirds of the subjects showed changes in skin conductivity while being observed from a distance.

Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) is a measure of skin conductivity, which is dependent on how moist the skin is.

The more aroused a subject is, the greater the skin conductivity and GSR reading.

Line by line he followed the programed interaction, tracking physical parameters (temperature, pulse rate, skin conductivity) and system variables (nutrient rates, ambient gas profile, electrical stimuli).

Now the monitors showed strange patterns, steady periods alternating with abrupt changes in pulse rate, skin conductivity, ion balances, and nervous system activity.

Your blood pressure and pulse rate and skin conductivity all jumped, see?

He continuously monitors all my physical parameters: skin conductivity and pulse and beta-wave activity and so on.

These changes in body functions are not easily controlled by the conscious mind and include bodily reactions like skin conductivity and heart rate.

It drank in the data greedily, like some thirsty polygraph recording capillary dilation, skin conductivity, the shudders and tensions of every muscle.
