We studied patterns of psychophysiological (skin conductance, heart rate) reactivity to sounds and to situations with varying emotional and alerting connotations in child psychiatric outpatients and in healthy controls. Children with emotional disorders were particularly reactive to situations with aversive components, while conduct disorder subjects showed increased reactivity to pleasant situations and decreased responses to neutral but high-intensity stimulation and to withdrawal of stimulation in silence periods. The results indicate patterns of biological reactivity which may underlie different psychiatric disturbances in children.
我们研究了儿童精神科门诊患者和健康对照者对声音以及具有不同情绪和警觉内涵的情境的心理生理反应模式（皮肤电传导、心率）。患有情绪障碍的儿童对具有厌恶成分的情境特别敏感，而患有品行障碍的受试者对愉快情境的反应增强，对中性但高强度刺激以及在安静期刺激撤除的反应减弱。研究结果表明了可能是儿童不同精神障碍基础的生物反应模式。
