abstract：:This study was designed to examine the reliability of spontaneous electrodermal activity (EDA) as a function of the stages of sleep and waking in freely moving cats. Five adult cats were observed during waking--sleep sessions. The results show that: (a) for all stages, the reliability of EDA is slightly higher for amp...
