Power Spectrum and Connectivity Analysis in EEG Recording during Attention and Creativity Performance in Children

The present research aims at examining the power spectrum and exploring functional brain connectivity/disconnectivity during concentration performance, as measured by d2 test of attention creativity CREA in typically developing children. To this end, we examined connectivity using phase synchrony (i.e., locking index (PLI) over EEG signals acquired Emotiv EPOC neuroheadset 15 children aged 9- to 12-years. Besides, a complement, analysis was performed. Our results indicated that, Test performance there an increase global gamma synchronization alpha theta band desynchronization. Conversely, task, showed significant delta, beta, theta, bands. Connectivity revealed marked alpha, gamma. These findings are consistent with other neuroscience indicating that multiple mechanisms indeed involved creativity. In addition, these have important implications for assessment functions clinical settings, well neurofeedback interventions typical atypical development.
