Galvanometer

According to Answers.com a psycho galvanometer is an instrument for testing mental reaction by determining how skin resistance changes when a voltage is applied to electrodes in contact with the skin.



The Galvanometer has been found to be a useful tool for assessing the potential effectiveness of advertisements, direct mail messages, package copy, and other marcom messages.

Here are some pictures of the Galvanometer.

Has anyone ever been part of an advertisement pretest?
