Ranges from 1-4HZ.
Is the slowest brain wave
Delta
Alpha, SMR, MU
Idling rhythms
Helps with perception, making sense of the world, spelling & arithemetic. "Smarts of the brain."
Located behind the frontal lobe
Parietal Lobe
Posterior Temporal Lobes.
Helps with co-dependency, poor sense of self or poor eye contact
T5 & T6
Located in the sensorimotor cortex
C3 & C4
"Flat top" brain wave
Ranges from 4-8Hz
Theta
Linked to focus, analytics.
Normally 13-21HZcan overlap EMG ranges
Beta
Visual Processing.
normally has higher alpha amplitudes. located in the back bottom part of the brain.
Occipital Lobe
T3 & T4
Between the middle of sensory and motor functions. helps with ADHD and hand writing
C4
Normally 9-11Hz
Type of Idling wave
Mu Rhythms
Ranges from 20-32Hz
associated with Peak performance, fast cognitive processing, worry/ anxiety.
Could actually be EMG
Helps with memory, understanding & language. connected with emotions and motivation. Found on the sides of the head near the ears.
Temporal Lobes
Helps with poor visual attention, addiction and anxiety.
Best site for alpha training.
O1 & O2
Right hemi.
Ranges from 8-10 Hz
Type of Idling wave. can reflect slow processing and cognitive decline
Alpha 1
Ranges from 28-40 Hz
trained under task and is involved in advanced learning and memory
Gamma
Controls executive functions, thinking, planning, organizing, problem solving, emotions and behavioral control. located in the fron of the brain behind the forehead.
Frontal lobe
Part of the cingulate Gyrus
FZ , CZ, PZ
Lack of emotions, introversion, goal-directed, thinking and action, internal locus of control, slow & serial processing. Perfect solution is the goal
Left Hemisphere dominance traits
Normally 12-15 Hz
Type of Idling wave
Sensorimotor Rhythm (SMR)
Ranges from 10-12Hz.
Reflects fast processing, anxiety and insomnia.
Type of idling rhythm
Alpha 2
Motor function in the frontal lobe and Sensory funcation in the parietal lobe
Sensory motor cortex
F3 & F4
Distractibility, stimulus seeking, seeking novelty & change. emotionally involved, expressive and extroverted. external locus of change. needs to be liked by others. impulsive and manic behavior. fast processing. makes decisions easy
Right hemisphere dominanace traits
