我们评估了在飞行过程中记录多种生理焦虑措施的可行性,以及它们如何区分飞行恐惧症和控制。计算所有变量的基线调整和转换以及通过通气调整心率以提供额外心率的获益。效应量是区分组的能力的一个指标,心率指标的效应量在1.1到1.7之间。虽然呼吸频率和每分钟通气量,过度换气的指标,在两组之间没有差异,恐惧症患者在吸气时比对照组停顿得更多。恐惧症患者的皮肤电导波动更大,呼吸性窦性心律失常更少。自我报告的焦虑是一个比生理测量更强大的测试,这一结果可能部分解释了如何选择恐惧症。这些结果表明,在实验室外监测多个生理系统是实用和翔实的。在嘈杂、变化、无人监督的门诊环境中,可以准确地量化具有心理重要性的生理指标。
We evaluated the feasibility of recording multiple physiological anxiety measures during a flight and how well they could distinguish flight phobics from controls. Benefits of baseline adjustment and transformation for all variables and adjustment of heart rate by ventilation to give additional heart rate were calculated. Effect size, one measure of the power to discriminate groups, was between 1.1 and 1.7 for heart rate measures. Although respiratory rate and minute ventilation, indicators of hyperventilation, did not differ between groups, phobics paused more during inspiration than did controls. Phobics also showed more skin conductance fluctuations and less respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Self-reported anxiety was a more powerful discriminator than physiological measures, a result that may be partially explained by how phobics were selected. These results indicate that monitoring of multiple physiological systems outside the laboratory is practical and informative. Physiological measures of psychological importance can be quantified accurately in a noisy, changing, unsupervised ambulatory setting.
