5 Foreword Those interested in the relationships between psychological and physiological functions will again and again be impressed by the fact that great individual differences and large situational variability are manifested in psychophysiological data. Psychophysiology from a differential perspective has been an enduring theme throughout the history of personality and temperament research. However, the present book is the first to bear the word differential in its title. Actually, this monography is not only concerned with psychophysiological personality research, but with a much broader program of systematic investigation. Multivariate research methodology permits one to operationalize physiological response profiles, both with regard to lasting differences between persons and the discrimination of situations. In order to determine functional relationships between person characteristics and situational demands, that is, to determine the processes of stimulus-response mediation, one first needs to systemize these various sources of variance in assessment models and subsequently partition the observed covariance. A series of the author's own investigations in the Hamburg and Freiburg laboratories shows just how fruitful this research approach can be. What is fundamentally new in the author's psychophysiological research is the combination of the multivariate approach with a pharmacological autonomic blockade strategy. This makes possible the generation of a model of cardiovascular activation components, which provides an alignment of empirical data and theoretically anticipated structures. The three main system components of vegetative regulation, which can be distinguished by partial dual blockades of autonomic receptors, allow both an advanced descriptive and an explanatory characterization of activation processes. This approach functions as a construct validation (a) for the interpretation of individual cardiovascular and other autonomic parameters and (b) - in a theoretical respect - for the more precise formulation and testing of hypotheses on psychophysiological concepts, for example, emotionality or anger reactions.
6 VIII Foreword This book is a compelling and comprehensive research report presenting crucial results employing this new approach and providing a heuristic for future studies. The monograph also is an excellent textbook of psychophysiological methodology, dealing with various aspects of scientific theory and research logic. Dr. Stemmler has developed and formalized a differential psychophysiology which will likely be a standard for comparison in this area for many years. lochen Fahrenberg
7 Acknowledgements Although the delivery of this book is in my sole responsibility, many persons joined me in the labor. Without their help the result would have looked different. Experiments 1 to 3 were conducted at the Forschungsgruppe Klinische Psychophysiologie at the Psychiatric Clinic of the Hamburg University Hospital. I am indebted to Dr. B. Andresen, E. Irrgang, G. Sternkopf, and E. Thom for their assistance and support. Dr. W. Spehr was the medical coordinator and experimenter in Experiment 2, as was PD Dr. Dr. R. Dittmann in Experiment 3. I am indebted to both of these highly competent clinical researchers, and it was a great pleasure to collaborate with them. Experiment 4 was conducted at the Forschungsgruppe Psychophysiologie at the Psychology Department of Freiburg University. I wish to thank I. Burgdorf, V. Hoppner, W. Miiller, and A. Sondhauss for their assistance and support. I am indebted to Prof. Dr. M. Myrtek for lively discussions about many topics of the present treatise. lowe special thanks to Dipl. Math. Friedrich Foerster, who adapted the biosignal analysis programs for the needs of Experiment 4 and who invested his inspiration and effort into the estimation of catdiovascular activation component parameters, especially the development of the multistage linear estimation algorithm described in Chapter Dr. P. Grossman amicably shared his expertise in cardiovascular psychophysiology with me and influenced the final formulation of the Model of Cardiovascular Activation Components. I greatly appreciate the work of these two colleagues, as well as the efforts of my students M. Henschen, E. Meinhardt, H. Schafer, and H. Schmid. Much of what is written in this book bears the stamp of Prof. Dr. J. Fahrenberg's scientific influence, which has been of great importance in my academic life. Only through his continued support and encouragement could my thinking about psychophysiology and differential psychology cristallize in this book. My wife Judith sustained me effectively not only in proof-reading the entire book, especially with regard to the English, but also in maintaining our curtailed family life so well.
