Galvanic skin response (GSR) Biofeedback uses training to reduce tension and anxiety and improve concentration and self-regulation. The study was aimed to evaluate this method as a form of rehabilitation and quantify the outcomes achieved by patients undergoing training using this technique. Six schizophrenic patients were enrolled in the study and underwent training based on the relaxation training module (CENTER), concentration training module (BALANCE), and self-regulation training module (INSECTS). Training sessions were held twice a week for 6 weeks. From the total group of subjects involved in the study, two patients had a statistically significant increase in measured values after the CENTER exercise, indicating that relaxation was achieved. Four patients showed a statistically significant decrease in measured values after the BALANCE exercise, which was reflective of an improvement in concentration. Three patients had a statistically significant decrease in measured values after the INSECTS exercise, which indicated an improvement in self-regulation. GSR Biofeedback may be used to complement the pharmacological treatment of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia.
皮肤电反应（GSR）生物反馈利用训练来减轻紧张和焦虑，提高注意力和自我调节能力。本研究旨在评估这种方法作为一种康复形式，并量化接受这种技术训练的患者所取得的成果。六名精神分裂症患者参与了这项研究，并根据放松训练模块（CENTER）、集中训练模块（BALANCE）和自我调节训练模块（INSECTS）进行了训练。训练课程每周进行两次，持续 6 周。在参与研究的总受试者中，有两名患者在 CENTER 运动后测量值有显著增加，表明实现了放松。四名患者在 BALANCE 运动后测量值有显著下降，这反映了注意力的提高。三名患者在 INSECTS 运动后测量值有显著下降，表明自我调节得到了改善。皮肤电反应（GSR）生物反馈可用于补充诊断为精神分裂症患者的药物治疗。
