ABSTRACT
Objective:
To assess the EEG amplitude and frequency of poor and excellent achievers.Method:
The 15% highest achieving students and the 15% lowest achieving students from the three faculties were selected to be included in the study sample. EEG was carried out according to the 10–20 system, using a common reference electrode. The Bipolar recording of 10 minutes of two runs i.e. anterior, posterior and transverse has been taken into account for the analysis of data.Results:
There are significant differences in the amplitudes of certain lobes of both hemispheres of poor and excellent achievers. Particularly, poor achievers have higher amplitudes. The frequency of excellent achievers of certain lobes is found to be significantly higher than those of the poor achievers.Conclusion:
The relationship of amplitude and frequency with academic achievement are inconclusive, nothing can be said with confidence about the role played by the amplitude in determining the academic achievement of poor achievers. It is difficult to understand the specific roles played by the frequencies of the different lobes in determining the academic achievement of excellent achievers. Hence, further researches should be undertaken to study the cause and effect relationship between amplitude and frequency of the different lobes and academic achievements of’ students.Key words
