Alpha Waves In Relation To Different Intellectual Levels

Our brain is made up of billions of brain cells called neurons, which use electricity to communicate with each other. The combination of millions of neurons sending signals at once produces an enormous amount of electrical activity in the brain, which can be detected using sensitive medical equipment (such as an EEG),measuring electricity levels over areas of the scalp. In the present was to study the beta waves among different IQ groups. The extreme groups were selected on the basis of their scores on Raven’s progressive matrices. Results have revealed that the beta waves have a significant positive correlation with High IQ and Intellectually disabled group.
