-As you can see, the very small signal variations are normally quite uninteresting (as the skin response only very sluggishly follows the stimulation/emotional state of the subject). Hence, it is usually a good idea to resample the signal to a more suitable resolution. To keep some of the finer details (and being able to determine latency values with a reasonable resolution), for this example I resampled the data to 100Hz using the [[resampleaa]] function (which works a little better than using just ''downsample''):+As you can see, the very small signal variations are normally quite uninteresting (as the skin response only very sluggishly follows the stimulation/emotional state of the subject).
