In terms of interference, interpolated activity is anything that an individual does that has nothing to do with the task at hand. For example I have to memorize a list of randomly selected words for five minutes, then I get a free five minutes of interpolated activity--I get to do whatever I want. Which consists of me browsing my phone, chatting with my seatmate and the such. But it has nothing to do with memorizing something else. Then the next five minutes I have to write down what I recall from the list from earlier. The interpolated activity serves as interference.

What is the purpose of the EEG ground electrode in measuring brain activity?

The EEG ground electrode is used to provide a reference point for measuring brain activity. It helps to ensure that the electrical signals detected by the EEG electrodes accurately reflect the brain's activity by providing a stable baseline for comparison.


What role does the reference electrode play in EEG measurements and how does it impact the accuracy of the recorded brain activity?

The reference electrode in EEG measurements provides a stable point of comparison for the electrical signals detected by the other electrodes on the scalp. It helps to ensure that the recorded brain activity is accurately measured by providing a baseline for the electrical activity in the brain. This helps to minimize noise and interference, improving the accuracy of the recorded brain activity.


What test do doctors use to study brain wave activity?
