Question 16 • 670417 Psychology S1 - MOSELEY, MELISSA K

During EEG measurements, 6-10 electrodes are attached to the scalp and produce line drawings that represent __________.

Answer
A
brain function
B
mental activity
C
x-rays
D
brain patterns

Explanation

EEG electrodes detect electrical activity produced by the brain and record it as wave-like line patterns. These recordings are called brain patterns, so the best answer is “brain patterns.” X-rays are produced by a different imaging method, and EEG does not directly measure thoughts or mental activity.
