Abstract :
An experiment was conducted on five subjects to determine the time it takes for slow alpha wave activity to appear during monotonous tasks. The experiment measured the time of response to digits appearing on a screen and the time of appearance of slow waves in the electroencephalograms (EEGs). Two professional automobile drivers were tested, as well as one maintenance technician and two students for comparison. The EEGs were analyzed using the autoregressive method. The results are presented and discussed
