SCRs were recorded from the hypothenar eminence of the left palmar surface using pregelled snap electrodes (BIOPAC EL509) connected to the BIOPAC MP-160 System (Goleta, CA). SCR data were considered valid to CS presentation if the trough-to-peak deflection occurred between 0.5 to 6 sec following CS onset, was greater than 0.02 µS, and lasted for a maximum 5 sec. Trials that did not meet these criteria were scored as zero. SCRs were processed using an automated analysis script implemented in Matlab (Green et al. 2013 (link)), and were visually inspected by research assistants blind to the experimental conditions. SCR data were square-root transformed prior to statistical analysis to normalize the distributions.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
