Why another way of GSR evaluation?
The evaluation algorithm of the “Music Plot 2” is slightly different as in the “Music Plot I”. In the first version it shows you the standard, straightforward way of evaluation: the change relative to your starting value. This value is actually calculated from the first 5 seconds after you clicked “start”, in order to average changes which occur while you settle down. In the second version of the “Music Plot” the change is evaluated relative to the average for the entire session which has run thus far. In this way the system adapts itself dynamically and is able to reveal instantaneous changes. This makes it interesting for observing emotions.
