ABSTRACT:
The running of a program, designed to train the user to control one or more aspects of his or her psycho-physiological state, is controlled by signals representative of a psycho-physiological parameter of the user, e.g., galvanic skin resistance. This may be detected by a sensor unit with two contacts on adjacent fingers of a user. The sensor unit is separate from a receiver unit which is connected to a computer running the program.
