Noninvasive Measurement of Cardiac Functions
Chapter
Abstract
The preceding chapter summarized the physiology of the cardiovascular system and suggested avenues, especially neural and hormonal mechanisms, through which behavioral or psychological factors might influence its regulation. The focus of this chapter will be to describe methodologies for observing changes in cardiac function which are particularly suitable for behavioral studies in humans due to their low risk, noninvasiveness, and for some methodologies, their unobtrusiveness.
