A method for analyzing skin response waveform information obtained by
measuring skin impedance with a voltage of a predetermined frequency. A
current value at the start of polarization caused by the application of
the voltage is determined, followed by determining a current value after
a predetermined amount of time from the start of the polarization. A
current value after termination of the polarization (value NT) is then
determined and the difference between the current value at the start of
the polarization and after the predetermined amount of time from the
start of the polarization (value A) is determined. The difference between
the current value after the predetermined amount of time from the start
of the polarization and the value NT (value B) is determined, followed by
analyzing the skin response waveform information using the ratios A/B,
B/A and the value NT.
