An EEG Tool for Monitoring Patient Engagement during Stroke Rehabilitation: A Feasibility Study

Figure 4

BEI association with exercise difficulty and practice. (a) Dynamics of BEI as a function of exercise difficulty. At each level, the BEI is averaged for both exercises over all participants (±SD). The arrows mark the tendency of BEI change between 3 exercise levels: an average of levels 1 and 2 (owing to functional similarity), level 3, and level 4. The inset shows the percent of success, reported by ArmTutor. The success rate reduced in the 4th level. (b) Dynamics of BEI between start and end of the exercises. The figure shows the decrease of the index between start-of-exercise and end-of-exercise. The start and end columns present averages (±SD) from all 4 levels of exercise (2 exercises in each level) over all 13 controls.
