An increasing number of social psychologists are interested in investigating the physiological underpinnings of social behavior. Many of these researchers have had little experience with the sophisticated technology now being used in psychophysiological measurement. The major objective of this award is to advance the technical and theoretical foundation for research in the Social Sciences by providing a forum for advanced study and research in psychophysiological principles and techniques. The centerpiece of the program is an annual 28- day conference in the Iowa Social Psychophysiological Laboratory. During this time, the participants are engaged in the intensive study of: (1) the general theoretical issues involved in inferring psychological processes and states from physiological data; (2) the neurophysiological foundations of psychophysiology; 3) psychophysiological concepts and principles; (4) psychophysiological recording procedures; (5) general issues in the analyses of psychophysiological data; and (6) computers and instrumentation. Participants also update limited hands-on experience in recording electromyographic, electroencepholographic, electrodermal, cardiovascular electrooculargraphic, and respiratory responses. Finally, the program involves overcoming traditional obstacles to the application of psychophysiological principles and techniques in the social sciences. These efforts include the development and distribution of algorithms, software, recording procedures and instrumentation. The Principal Investigator has an established reputation as a superb researcher, extremely knowledgeable about psychophysiological theory and techniques and dedicated to sharing his knowledge and experience with others. He has assembled an outstanding staff to aid him in this endeavor.

越来越多的社会心理学家对研究社会行为的生理基础感兴趣。这些研究人员中的许多人对目前用于心理生理测量的复杂技术缺乏经验。该奖项的主要目标是通过为心理生理学原理和技术的高级学习和研究提供论坛，促进社会科学研究的技术和理论基础。该计划的核心是在爱荷华州社会心理生理实验室举行的为期28天的年度会议。在此期间，参与者进行了深入的研究：(1)从生理数据推断心理过程和状态的一般理论问题；(2)心理生理学的神经生理学基础；3)心理生理学的概念和原理；(4)心理生理记录程序；(5)心理生理数据分析中的一般问题；(6)计算机和仪器仪表。参与者还更新了记录肌电图、脑电图、皮肤电图、心血管眼电图和呼吸反应的有限实践经验。最后，该计划涉及克服传统障碍，心理生理学原理和技术在社会科学中的应用。这些努力包括算法、软件、记录程序和仪器的开发和分发。作为一名卓越的研究者，首席研究员有着良好的声誉，他对心理生理学理论和技术非常了解，并致力于与他人分享他的知识和经验。他召集了一支优秀的团队来帮助他完成这项工作。
