+===Synonyms===
 ===Parent Entity===
 [[Response]]
+===Example===
+In a study of mental imagery, the silent visualization of an image by the subject is a covert response.
+===Logical Restrictions===
+A covert response cannot be characterized by a [[Response Modality]] since it is covert.
+===Comments===
+Covert responses may be indirectly measurable, as in the galvanic skin response after being startled by a loud noise, or EEG modification during a neural feedback study.
+If it is not a movement of the body, it's covert.
+Holding one's breath, however, is overt.
+BrainMap (2009) does not represent covert responses, but represents the lack of an overt response via Response Modality = None and Response Type = None.
