- Abstract
The simplified estimation of the level of human background activation is proposed. This activation is considered as a type of general activation and interpreted as subject's preparation to the task fulfilment.
Background activation is represented as the three-component parameter; two basic components (nonspecific and regulative activations) and one additional component (prolongation of all specific types of activity). The relaxation-activation tess (RAT) was constructed for the estimation of the basic components. RAT is consists of two successive phases: three-minutes relaxation and one-minute activation fulfiled by subject with self-regulation technique. Three fold testing was made in order to eliminate the factor of nonspecific activation. Characteristics of nonspecific activation were compared with the temperature of hand skin for the estimation of test validity; high negative correlation between these indices was found.- Keywords
