Electric brain acticity changes during targeted emotional stimulation evaluated using sLORETA method
Špidlenová, Lada ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Name: Electrical cerebral activity changes during targeted emotional stimulation, evaluated by sLORETA Goals: The main goal of this thesis is the comparison of electrical brain activity changes during targeted emotional stimulation. Method: The research was conducted by measuring electrical cerebral activity using Natus Neurology 32-channel Nicolet™EEG Wireless Amplifier 32/64 device. The activity measurements were taken by an EEG Electro-cap with a total of 19 flat registration electrodes (Fp1, Fp2, F7, F3, Fz, F8, T5, T3, C3, Cz, C4, T4, T6, P3, Pz, 36 P4, O1, O2), placed in accord with the internationally used 10-20 system. The impendance resistance did not exceed 10 kΩ, with a sampling frequency of 512 Hz and a bandpass of 0,5-70 Hz. Resulting data was then processed using NeuroGuide programme. A 30s long, zero-artifact EEG section was then chosen to be exported to sLORETA programme. Probands were divided randomly into three research groups - positive, neutral and negative. Each proband was asked to pass the VVIQ imagination vividity questionnaire. In the next phase, each participant was asked to undergo a three week long imagination training programme, consisting of watching VR videos and targeted imaginations of walking, three times a week. While in the VR simulation, music and sound effect...

Source analysis and comparation of Feldenkrais inspired movement and visual stimulation using sLORETA
Novotná, Tereza ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Title of thesis: Source analysis and comparation of Feldenkrais inspired movement and visual stimulation using sLORETA Objectives: The thesis aim is to evaluate intracerebral source activity during a simple arm movement inspired by Feldenkrais method and to compare it with a visual stimulation of the same movement presented in a clip and with an imagination of the same movement. The movement inspired by Feldenkrais method was simplified to a repeated flexion of the dominant arm. Source analysis was evaluated from EEG and processed using sLORETA program, Methods: To obtain the data, experimental group was put together containing 12 participants aged 22-60, (mean = 27.2), both genders included. Participants were subjected to one-off measurement by the EEG instrument. Feldenkrais inspired movement of a flexion of a dominant upper right arm was investigated. The experiment constisted of six parts: 1. native EEG record with eyes closed and open, 2. active flexion of the dominant upper arm with eyes closed, 3. active flexion of the dominant upper arm with eyes opened, 4. watching video presenting repeated upper arm flexion, 5. dominant upper arm flexion imagination with eyes closed. Every part lasted for two minutes. Between individuals parts was inserted a pause. Obtained EEG data were processed with...
