Spontaneous electrodermal activity during sleep in man: an intranight study. 1983

E Freixa i Baqué, and B Chevalier, and J C Grubar, and C Lambert, and A Lancry, and P Leconte, and H Mériaux, and F Spreux

This study was designed to examine the intranight evolution of spontaneous electrodermal activity (EDA). Eight paid volunteer male students were recorded for 3 complete nights (after a habituation night). The results show that: during the first sleep cycle, EDA is significantly lower than during the rest of the night; rapid eye movement sleep evolves in a particular manner, which emphasizes the specificity of this sleep stage; and there is no internight habituation effect.
