Biosensors in Psychology

Understanding the multiple facets of the human experience requires multiple approaches. For example, testing potential priming effects – are there differences in attention? Do exhibited emotions change? Are there subtle physiological responses? Or with memory tests – does sustained attention alter the outcome? Is this impacted by psychophysiological stress?
Psychology researchers now have the tools available to answer all of these questions within single experimental paradigms – creating a truly holistic understanding of human cognition. iMotions provides an efficient system for handling data from single or multiple biosensors – allowing you to collect and understand data that matches the intricacy of the questions you’re facing.
The Nerve Center
For great psychology research
iMotions provides the framework for great science to happen. Build the experimental sequence, present stimuli in any format, and collect data from almost any device. Export data as you need, or produce analyses with open R notebooks directly in iMotions. iMotions functions like an extra member of your team – helping you streamline and amplify your research.
iMotions is used at over 800 universities worldwide
Psychology research in a single platform
Understand humans better
Biosensors make human behavior measurable, in almost any situation. Despite their established use within psychology research, a core difficulty remains with their synchronization within experimental paradigms. iMotions provides a single software solution for controlling the experimental process, executing studies, and synchronizing multiple data streams.
Psychology researchers are currently using iMotions for:
- Investigating the transferability of placebo effects with EDA
- Validate cortisol as a biomarker of stress using EDA and PPG
- Investigating emotional facial expressions within video game environments
- Discovering the nuances of learning in VR with EEG

Objective Data for Understanding Emotional Expressions
iMotions helps Oxford University address entirely new areas of research into emotions. By utilizing an objective and automated system for measurements of facial expressions, Dr. Danielle Shore is able to rapidly explore emotional reactions in game theory contexts.
