Abstract

The article describes the results of cortical electrical activity in the theta-band EEG during the formation phase of emotions of different valences depending on the sex factor. Shown the presence of distinctive features in the overall organization of cortical electrogenesis in men and women in the induction of emotions that are more generalized increase in the intensity of theta-activity in female using video frames that inducting negative emotions.
