摘要:AbstractIn this article we study the effects of emotion on brain activity through nonlinear processing of EEG. EEG was recorded from 19 sites (10-20systems) in different states of brain activity; induced by emotionally valance music stimulus and also during no-task resting states. Then, we compared the EEG complexity of the rest condition with each emotional states. After that we determined the locations in which correlation dimension was changed in different states through one-way ANOVA test. In this study four excerpts of music from both Iranian traditional music and Western classical music, two negative valance and two positive valance pieces, were selected according to the results of Psychological papers.
