Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is a difference in the brain connectivity in mental practice and physical performance of training bilateral upper extremity function. Method: The subject performed activities involving mental tasks and physical exercise for bilateral upper extremity functioning during each phase of EEG measurements. The subject performed a symmetrical task(lifting a box and placing it back) that involved moving both arms at the same time and an asymmetrical task(opening and closing a bottle cap) in order to perform functional tasks. EEG electrodes were attached to Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4, T3, T4, P3, and P4. Data analysis was performed using Cross-Line Mapping for correlational analyses between EEG electrode pairs. Conclusion: This study found that the brain connectivity patterns of symmetrical and asymmetric upper extremity tasks have similar patterns for the motor and sensory area, and that the correlation of the physical practice is generally higher than that of the mental practice.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 건강한 성인을 대상으로 양측상지기능 훈련을 통해서 활성화 되는 대뇌 연결성에서 상상 훈련과 신체적 수행 간에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고자 한다. 연구방법: 연구 대상자는 건강한 성인 1명으로 상상훈련과 신체적 수행 시 EEG 측정이 이루어졌다. 양측상지기능 훈련은 대칭 과제와 비대칭 과제로 구성되었다. 대칭 과제는 양손으로 박스를 잡고 동시에 위의 선반으로 올렸다가 다시 내려놓는 과제이고, 비대칭 과제는 한 손으로 병을 잡고 다른 한 손으로 뚜껑을 여는 과제였다. EEG 전극은 Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4, T3, T4, P3 및 P4에 부착되었다. 데이터 분석은 EEG 전극 쌍 간의 상관 분석을 위해 Cross-Line Mapping을 사용하였다. 결론: 본 연구 결과 대칭 및 비대칭의 양측 상지 과제에서 대뇌 연결성 패턴은 운동과 감각 영역에서 유사한 패턴을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본 연구를 통해 양측상지기능 훈련 시 상상훈련보다 신체적 수행에서 대뇌 연결성이 더 높은 상호상관을 갖는다는 것을 확인하였다.
