Methods of determining attention using EEG waves

Abstract

The types of attention studied by the current scientific literature are consistent with the various manmade activities. Because only in the time when attention, regardless of its type, allows for effective interaction with the external environment, it is considered, together with will, a resource. Like any resource, it can be trained and used with efficiency and effectiveness. Because it is an important resource of the human body, attention has to be measured with quantitative indicators. One method used to measure it is the acquisition, processing and interpretation of EEG type waves. The article presents a comparative study between classical methods and those using EEG waves.
