Detection of EEG Patterns for Induced Fear Emotion State via EMOTIV EEG Testbench

Abstract

In this study, International Affective Picture System (IAPS) were used to evoke fear and neutral stimuli using EMOTIV EPOC EEG recognition system (n=15). During the experiments, EEG data were recorded using the Test bench program. To synchronize the EEG records, IAPS pictures were reflected on the screen. A Python script was written in the Open Sesame program to provide a synchronized data flow in the Input/Output channels of the installed virtual serial port. The Event-Related Oscillations (ERO) responses and Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) were calculated. Statistically significant differences (p
