THE EFFECT OF EMOTIONS ON ELECTROCARDIOGRAM
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper reports the effect of emotions on human electrocardiogram (ECG). The overall goal wasto study changes in ECG while the subject is in emotional state. The subjects were provided withsome questions which can induce a particular emotional state and measured the subject’s ECG withBIOPAC system. Then the ECG signal was analysed with the help of BIOPAC AcqKnowledgesoftware. The Power Spectral Density (PSD) and Standard Deviation (SD) were calculated for theECG signal under normal condition and during emotional state. The results obtained areencouraging. The assessment of the data suggests that ECG can be used to study emotional states ofa person.
