Four-criterion selection of neuropsychological measures for portable classroom EEG

Research Method · All research methods
Evidence · no claims cited

Description

The article proposes screening candidate neuro-psychological measures against four criteria: potential to add unique information about challenge and threat states, compatibility with portable EEG devices, a strong empirical and theoretical basis for inference from EEG data, and the ability to remain meaningful when aggregated over time in observational studies. Applying these criteria iteratively led to selecting alpha-based internal attention and theta-based working memory activity.
