Effects of Exercise in Immersive Virtual Environments on Cortical Neural Oscillations and Mental State

Figure 3

Mean alpha activity (7.5–12.5 Hz), expressed as relative (%) changes over global (G; black lines) and frontal (F; grey lines) electrode sites. Mean EEG activity was measured before (rest) and following No-Exercise (automatic drive) and Exercise (moderate cycling) trials within three levels of virtual environment exposure (Control; OSM: one-screen mode; TSM: three-screen mode). indicates a significant difference compared with Control (); indicates difference between Exercise and No-Exercise trials (); indicates difference between F and G (). Data are mean ± 0.95 CI ().
