Finally, the same "effective" campaign showed the highest EI values, possibly because of the empathy induced by the testimonial and the explicitness of the message. This is probably due to the complexity of the storytelling (spot) and to the immediateness of the image (a lady who underwent a tracheotomy). A spot and an image belonging to the same PSA campaign based on the "fear arousing appeal" and with a narrative/experiential communication style (classified as "effective" on the basis of the economical/health-related improvements promoted) reported the lowest and highest effort values, respectively. In particular, a campaign characterized by a symbolic communication style (classified as "awarded" on the basis of the prizes received by specialized committees) obtained the highest approach values, as estimated by the AW index.
#GALVANIC SKIN RESPONSE STUDY SERIES#
The present protocol describes a series of operational and computational steps required to properly estimate, through the aforementioned indices, the emotional and cerebral reaction of a group of subjects towards a selected number of antismoking PSAs.

This is most frequently measured as a change in resistance to a direct current of electricity. In fact, social scientists have studied how the bodys sweat response is linked to. In 1888 Fr 1 described an electrical response of the skin called the psychogalvanic reflex or galvanic skin response (GSR). In this study we have designed and built a stress sensor based on Galvanic Skin Response (GSR), and controlled by ZigBee. Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) is a measure of skin conductivity. Furthermore, the autonomic Emotional Index (EI) was calculated, as derived from the Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) and Heart Rate (HR) signals. There are studies which indicate that stress increases the risk of cardiac problems. Two EEG indices were employed: the frontal alpha band EEG asymmetry (the Approach Withdrawal (AW) index) and the frontal theta (effort index).

The objective of this protocol is to apply electroencephalography (EEG) and autonomic signal analysis to study responses to selected antismoking PSAs.

In this context, a particular sector or marketing is represented by public service announcements (PSAs). The effect of family and nurse on unconscious patients was investigated by GSR signals recorded with a new proposed protocol. Neuroscience is increasingly applied to the investigation of the neurophysiological bases of the perception of and reaction to commercial stimuli to support traditional marketing methods. In this study, Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) signals were analyzed from 31 patients with low consciousness levels between GCS 3 and 8 to determine relationship between consciousness level and GSR signals as a new approach. The evaluation of advertising, products, and packaging is traditionally performed through methods based on self-reports and focus groups, but these approaches often appear poorly accurate in scientific terms.
