Investigating the effect of age and gender of users on improving spirituality by using EEG

The Effect of Juingong Meditation on the Theta to Alpha Ratio in the Temporoparietal and Anterior Frontal EEG Recordings

“…There has been recent EEG studies on various practices including meditation to improve participants' sense of spirituality. The results, of the research showed that religious environments [25] and age [26] affect the EEG in practice. In particular, regarding age, the results showed that older participants obtained a sense of spirituality sooner [26].…”

Gender differential item functioning analysis in measuring computational thinking disposition among secondary school students

“…As a result, male students tend to understand issues through calculations, evaluate the compatibility between computational tools and techniques and challenges, and use computational strategies when solving problems. Besides, the additional information in Cognitive Neurodynamics context showed the existence of a gender effect on spirituality which reported that alpha and theta brain signals started increased in male according by age range ( 20 ). Computational thinking is breaking down complicated problems into steps that can be understood (called algorithms) and finding patterns that can be used to solve other problems ( 22 ).…”

“…In the context of this study, a person’s gender in CT also encourages in effecting spirituality well-being. ( 20 ) in his study found the existence of a gender effect on spirituality and showed that alpha and theta brain signals increased in male students at the 30–35 age range; while this increase was slower at the 20-29 age range. External factors such as decision-making, brain activity patterns, internal mental, and spirituality also can be linked to a person’s gender in CT differences.…”

“…Recent studies in Cognitive Neurodynamics field also discussed several variables that cater interest such as decision-making (18), and brain activity patterns and mental (19). Other than that, the gender differences also reported in spirituality well-being (20) and mental fatigue (21). All these factors open the door to relate the Cognitive Neurodynamics with CT for developing better students in local context.…”
