  • Title: [Changes in the EEG power in male and female subjects during visual creative thinking].
    Author: Tarasova IV, Vol'f NV, Razumnikova OM.
    Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 2005; 55(6):762-7. PubMed ID: 16396482.
    Abstract:
    Gender-related differences in EEG patterns during creative visual thinking were investigated in 10 men and 10 women. The spectral power density was analyzed in the range of 4-30 Hz. Gender differences in the hemispheric asymmetry of theta1-rhythm desynchronization were found: females demonstrated greater desynchronization in the right hemisphere than in the left hemisphere, whereas no asymmetry was revealed in males. Only in women numerous negative correlations between creativity indices and task-induced theta1 desynchronization were found.
