Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study is to examine relationship between cognitive function and sasang constitution by analyzing EEG status of company workers in Cheon-An. Method : 59 company workers were tested with cognitive assessment EEG program and questionaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification II. They were assorted by Sasang Constitutions, and we analyzed its correlation with cognitive assessment score and EEG data. Results : 1. According to mean active EEG rhythm of Alpha. H-Beta, Gamma wave, there were no significant difference among Sasang Constitution. 2. According to mean success, error, concentration, response, workload and left/right brain activity score, there were no significant difference among Sasang Constitution. 3. According to mean active EEG rhythm of Theta, SMR, M-Beta wave, Soyangin(少陽人)'s value was significantly higher than that of Taeumin(太陰人) 4. According to mean cognitive strenghth score, Soyangin(少陽人)'s value was significantly higher than that of Taeumin(太陰人). Conclusion : In conclusion, Sasang Constitutional difference has no relevance with cognitive abilities However, Soyangin(少陽人) showed higher mean active EEG rhythm of Theta, SMR, M-Beta wave than that of Taeumin(太陰人). In addition, Soyangin(少陽人) also showed higher mean cognitive strenghth score than that of Taeumin(太陰人).
