Front Cover; Psychophysiological Measurement and Meaning; Copyright Page; Contents; Foreword; Preface; Acknowledgments; 1. Psychophysiology in the context of media processes and effects research; A brief history of media effects research; Early research-the impact of film content; Behaviorism's strong influence; Early behaviorist communication research; Opening the black box-the information processing approach; The second debut of physiology in media research; The third time's a charm: psychophysiological approaches to media
2. Psychophysiology: theoretical assumptions anda history of the fieldBasic assumptions of psychophysiology; 1. The brain is embodied; 2. The work of the brain and the body happens over time; 3. The subtractive method applies to analyzing physiological systems; 4. The body's primary job is to keep itself alive; 5. Cognitive processes can be inferred from bodily reactions; 6. Psychophysiological measures are monstrosities; Psychophysiology: a field with a long legacy; Benefits and drawbacks of psychophysiology; 3. Key terms and concepts in psychophysiology Tracing the basics of the signal chain from body to computerElectrodes and leads; Photoplethysmographs; Electrode cables and bioamplifiers; Filtering; AD/DA boards; Psychophysiological signal vocabulary; Tonic and phasic responses; Change scores; Habituation and sensitization; Summary; 4. Psychophysiological measures of cognitiveprocessing of media; Conceptualizing cognitive processing of mediated content; The limited capacity model of motivated, mediated, message processing; Cardiac activity: a physiological measure of cognitive processing; Psychological meaning of heart rate Basic anatomy and physiology of the cardiac systemRecording the ECG in the media research lab; Equipment and technical procedures for recording the ECG; Analysis of cardiac activity data; Examples of research using heart rate to study cognitive processing of media; EEG: a measure of cortical activity underlying cognitive processing of media; Psychological meaning of EEG; Recording the EEG signal; Examples of research using EEG to study cognitive processing of media; Summary; 5. Psychophysiological measures of emotionalprocessing of media; The nature of human emotion Mind/body interaction in emotionArousal and valence as superordinate dimensions of emotion; Skin conductance: an electrodermal measure of arousal; Psychological meaning of skin conductance; Measuring skin conductance in the media research lab; Skin conductance recording equipment and supplies; Skin conductance electrode placement; Analysis of skin conductance data; Examples of the use of skin conductance in media research; Facial EMG: a measure of emotional valence; Psychological meaning of facial EMG; Specific facial muscle activation as an index of emotional valence Recording the facial EMG signal |
