QEEG Activation Database of Lateralized Attention Networks
Status: possible future experiment
100 healthy participants will be recruited and screened for psychiatric disorder.
Participants will have EEG recorded with a 64-channel SynAmps2.
1 hour of total recording will be performed under conditions of:
1. Eyes Closed for 12 minutes
2. Eyes Open for 12 minutes
3. the Lateralized Attention Network Task (Zaidel’s lateralized version of the Posner Flanker Task) for 25 minutes.
Age regressed normative analysis of EEG will be performed to construct a database of typical EEG variation through state and trait distributions within a model of hemispheric interaction for separate Attentional Networks across components of temporal Alerting, spatial Orienting, and stimulus Conflict.
