  1. 1. Frontal Alpha Asymmetry and Behavioral Inhibition and Activation Systems

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Victoria Saldjoughi Tivander; [2023]
    Keywords : frontal alpha asymmetry; EEG; resting-state; BIS BAS; test-retest reliability;

    Abstract : Extensive research has been conducted on the relationship between brain activity and personality traits, and several theories propose a lateralization of specific personality qualities. A prominent model suggests frontal lateralization of motivational direction, specifically, the behavioral inhibition and activation systems (BIS/BAS), with greater right frontal activity linked to behavioral inhibition and greater left frontal activity linked to behavioral activation.

  2. 2. Exploring the relationship between frontal alpha asymmetry and the big five personality traits

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Hanna Ek; [2023]
    Keywords : Frontal alpha asymmetry; EEG; resting-state; personality traits; big five;

    Abstract : Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA) has been associated with individual differences such as various aspects of personality. However, the nature of the relationship between FAA and personality traits is not yet fully understood. READ MORE

  3. 3. Frontal Alpha Asymmetry scores in threatening and non-threatening conditions

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Gratsia Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : frontal alpha asymmetry; threat; facial processing; state-based FAA;

    Abstract : The current paper examined the relationship between frontal alpha asymmetry (FAA) and threatening face stimuli. Participants were presented with threatening faces, and this was compared to non-threatening (neutral) faces, on the assumption that the threatening faces would trigger a withdrawal motivation and a corresponding decrease in state FAA scores.

  4. 4. No relationship between frontal alpha asymmetry and motivational and personality traits

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Martin Nilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Frontal EEG asymmetry; motivation; personality; open-source;

    Abstract : The relationship between resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) frontal alpha asymmetry (FAA) and individual differences has been investigated for decades, during which time a plethora of methods have been used to quantify and analyse FAA. Recently, the relationship between resting-state FAA and motivation, personality, and psychopathology has been questioned. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling approach and avoidance behaviour : A deep learning approach to understand the human olfactory system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Frans Nordén; [2021]
    Keywords : Probabilistic Machine Learning; Variational Recurrent Neural Network; EEG; Approach and Avoidance behaviour; Frontal alpha asymmetry; Probabilistisk Maskininlärning; Variational Recurrent Neural Network; EEG; Approach and Avoidance behaviour; Frontal alpha asymmetri;

    Abstract : In this thesis we examine the question whether it is possible to model approach and avoidance behaviour with probabilistic machine learning. The results from this project will primarily aid in our collective understanding of human existence. READ MORE
