Abstract

It is aimed at finding the correlation between EEG channels from six induced emotions in normal subjects. The multichannel EEG data was measured by Pearson's correlation coefficient to investigate the linear relationship between channel pairs in alpha, beta and gamma EEG frequency sub-bands. The EEG data were collected from 12 healthy subjects, with six induced emotions by audio-visual stimuli, which were anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise. The 14-channel wireless Emotiv Epoc was used for data collection. The results show that the EEG channels in alpha band was relatively higher correlation than in beta and gamma bands. The highest correlation for all emotions in alpha band were the channel pairs in right frontal region, FC6-F4 and F4-AF4. In beta and gamma bands, the highest correlation pairs involved the right frontal, occipital and parietal regions, which were FC6-F4 and O2-P8.
