A Galvanometer measures electrical currents. It can also measure the “galvanic skin response” – electric currents from the human body. 50 people participating in an experiment were told 100 words and their electric skin response was measured. The words
Kiss,
Love,
Marry,
Divorce,
Name,
Woman,
Wound,
Dance,
Proud,
Habit,
Money
elicited the greatest electricity, while Pond, Pencil and Swim showed the least reaction.
