An Attempt to Reproduce the Presentiment EDA Response(Special Lecture 3)(Without Peer Review)(The Thirteenth Symposium on Life Information Science)

抄録

We attempted to reproduce Radio's experiment in which presentiment response was observed in electrodermal activity (EDA). In his experiment a series of pictures are shown to a subject; results are claimed to show a presentiment response exists in EDA - the signal before picture demonstration differs in accord with future picture contents (calm/disturbing). We wrote software to run this experiment and analyzed a few hundred pictures. We proposed a method of evaluating the statistical significance, which we hope is suitable for independent replication of results.
