Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
When people are treated with biofeedback, they are attached by surface electrodes to equipment that is linked to a computer that transforms and records physiological responses. These monitored physiological processes can include skin conductance, respiration, heart rate, heart rate variability, skin temperature, brainwave activity, and muscle tension. The biofeedback equipment conveys physiological responses as visual or auditory signals that the individual can observe on a computer monitor.... With practice, individuals learn to control and change their physiological responses by learning to manipulate the auditory or visual signals by their own efforts. 3, record 2, English, - biofeedback
