Abstract
A technique that allows researchers to simultaneously record typed tex t and link each typed word with up to four channels of autonomic nervo us system activity is described. The computer-based system is useful f or studying the biological correlates of language production. The syst em, which works with J&J biofeedback equipment, can be adapted to virt ually any monitoring equipment that can provide A/D conversion. Sugges tions for data analyses are included.
