Some skin properties are well-adapted to be controlled by autonomous sweat gland 

EDA includes, among others, EDR (electrodermal response), GSR (galvanic skin response), and PGR (psychogalvanic reflex). 

Emotional sweating is in contrast to the sweat activity for thermoregulation of the body. This regulation is a slower system and may cover the skin of the whole body.
