This study examined the effects of four levels of NaCl concentration (0.1–0.7%) on skin conductance responses (SCRs) and levels (SCLs) to deep breaths and loud noise. Twenty‐four subjects of both sexes took part in two identical experimental sessions, 7 days apart. All subjects encountered all four electrolyte concentrations. The results showed no effects of electrolyte concentration on SCLs or on the SCRs to the deep breaths, but indicated larger SCRs to the loud noise with the highest NaCl concentration.
