“…For example, voluntary heart rate slowing resulted in larger decreases in the perceived aversiveness of shocks for subjects who typically were aware of their cardiovascular reactions than for subjects who typically were unaware of their cardiovascular reactions (Sirota , Schwartz, & Shapiro, 1974. Also, speech-anxious subjects were able to reduce their anxiety during speech presentations by voluntarily decreasing their heart rate (Gatchel & Proctor, 1976). Similarly, high dentally anxious subjects were able to reduce their discomfort to the videotaped presentation of a dental procedure by voluntarily decreasing their heart rate (Oliver & Hirschman, 1982).…”

“…Several reports of clinical research have appeared which utilize these procedures in the reduction of physiological and subjective reactions to certain phobic stimuli or feared situations-snakes, public speaking, and thoughts of rape (31)(32)(33)(34). Voluntary control of autonomic functions facilitated by biofeedback methods may be a useful strategy for modifying maladaptive emotional reactions.…”

The effects of biofeedback training and voluntary control procedures on heart rate and subjective reactions to 30-sec immersion of the hand in ice water were investigated in five experimental conditions, nine subjects in each condition. All subjects were given an initial cold pressor test and a final test interspersed by the particular condition. In two of the conditions, subjects were given biofeedback training for increasing or for decreasing heart rate. No training was given to the other three groups. In two of the latter conditions, subjects were simply asked to increase or decrease their heart rate during the second cold pressor test, without previous training. The fifth condition was a no-treatment habituation control. Significant variations between groups were obtained of the tachycardia and reports of pain associated with the second cold pressor test. In general, there was a correspondence between heart rate change and subjective report of pain. Voluntary control of heart rate or other autonomically-mediated responses, enhanced by biofeedback training, may have implications for research on and clinical management of physiological and subjective reactions to stressful stimuli.

ResumenEl surgimiento de las técnicas de biofeedback, ha sido uno de los fenómenos más importantes ocurridos en este siglo en el campo de la psicología clínica. No sólo se ha demostrado la posibilidad de aplicar las técni-cas operantes al aprendizaje de funciones autonómicas y viscerales, sino también la posibilidad de aplicar estas técnicas, con fines de intervención terapéutica en multitud de trastornos psicosomáticos.Este artículo pretende ofrecer una visión histórica general sobre los inicios y evolución de las técnicas de biofeeback, hasta la actualidad, aportando una revisión bibliográfica sobre las diferentes técnicas de biofeedback y sus aplicaciones clínicas en distintos trastornos: estrés, migrañas, cefaleas tensionales, dolores, hipertensión, enfermedad de Rainaud, etc.Palabras clave. Biofeedback, respuestas psicofisiológicas. AbstractThe emergence of biofeedback techniques has been one of the most important phenomena that has taken place in the last century in the field of clinical psychology. It has been proved the possibilities of applying operant techniques not only to the learning of autonomous and visceral functions, but also to apply them for therapeutic purposes in many psychosomatic dysfunctions.This article purports to offer a historical and general perspective of the outset and technical evolution of the biofeedback, until today by means of an intemized bibliographical review of the main clinical applications in different disorders such as stress, migraine, headache, pains, hypertension, sickness of Raynaud, etc.
