  • The mean values for the EMG and EDA, with the SEM, as shown for the microneurography experiment. The EMG and electrodermal responses are shown in arbitrary units (area under the curve) for the duration of the sinusoidal cycles per condition. There was no significant effect of vision, attention, or the interaction of these, as shown in the ANOVAs, where the partial η2 shows the size effects.
