Design and implementation of a psychophysiological-biomedical configuration for the objective evaluation of human response to city noise. 1ο Πανελλήνιο Συνέδριο της Ελληνικής Εταιρίας Ψυχοφυσιολογίας.

Abstract: This project focuses (as part of a larger project) on the design and implementation of a biomedical engineering configuration with the capability of objective measurement of psychophysiological reactions during exposure to city noise. The first part involves sound recording, analysis and reinforcement techniques. The second part involves the design and implementation of psychophysiological hardware and software for recording and processing Electrodermal Activity (EDA), Peripheral Temperature (Temp), Electromyography and Photo-Plethysmography in parallel with the sound reinforcement process. Pilot EDA and Temp data, on four subjects, indicate significant differences during noise presentation. The final goal is to apply this configuration in a blind experimental design where Experimental Group subjects will be exposed to city noise while performing standardized cognitive tasks.
