To get more information on electroencephalography and brain alpha activity, we recommend reading the following articles:
In the Mind Tracker app, users can determine their intrinsic inclination to various activities (based on individual Alpha Wave Frequency, iAF, and individual Alpha Peak Frequency, iAPF). The algorithm for this function is based on the research by Olga Bazanova, moreover, it was developed with her direct participation.
To get more information on Alpha frequencies, check out our post or read the following research:
The algorithm for diagnosing psychophysiological states (Involvement, Relaxation, Fatigue, Anxiety, Stress) is based on the following research:
The Cognitive score metric is a complex index, measured differently in people with different iAPF. Developed in collaboration with scientific consultant O. Bazanova.
