Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Portable electroencephalography (EEG) studies now explore cognition in real-world settings. This study used an auditory oddball task on an electric skateboard, finding attention (P3, MMN/N2b) and alpha power changes, but no cognitive cost with increased motor demands.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Wearable Technology

Background:

  • Portable EEG enables real-world cognitive studies.
  • Previous research explored cognition during walking and cycling.
  • Investigating attention and cognitive load during novel mobile tasks is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess attention and cognitive resources during skateboarding using an auditory oddball task.
  • To investigate the impact of motor demands on cognitive processes.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of using electric skateboards for cognitive research.

Main Methods:

  • Participants performed an auditory oddball task on an electric skateboard indoors.
  • Electroencephalography (EEG) recorded brain activity, including event-related potentials (P3, MMN/N2b) and alpha power.
  • Riding difficulty was manipulated by comparing preferred versus non-preferred stances.

Main Results:

  • Standard-target differences in P3 and MMN/N2b were reliably observed during skateboarding.
  • Alpha power was attenuated in frontal and parietal regions during skateboarding compared to baseline.
  • Increased riding difficulty did not significantly alter P3 or tonic alpha amplitude.

Conclusions:

  • The electric skateboard auditory oddball paradigm is a viable method for studying attention in motion.
  • Cognitive resources for attention may not be significantly depleted by increased motor demands during skateboarding.
  • Findings challenge previous notions of motor interference reducing cognitive capacity.
