Quantitative EEG in sports: performance level estimation of professional female soccer players
Purpose: Measuring the peak performance of athletes remains a challenge in movement science and sports psychology. Non-invasive quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) recordings can be used to analyze various factors in sports psychology. Method: In this context, sports-related psychological fac...

Non-invasive quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) recordings can be used to analyze various factors in sports psychology. Method: In this context, sports-related psychological factors were used to estimate the performance of Thai professional female soccer players before a competition. The QEEG recordings of thirty-two players were recorded three times: twice before a competition (once a week) and a week after a competition. Four factors of sports psychology were estimated and observed: anxiety, perceptual response to an acute bout of brain activity, assertiveness, and brain central fatigue. A brain topographic map (absolute power) and brain connectivity (coherence and amplitude asymmetry) data were used to analyze sports-related psychological factors. These factors were measurable based on the brain activity of the athletes and could be used to evaluate their performance during competitions by using QEEG values. Results: Sports-related psychological performance was estimated by Pearson’s correlation coefficients, which revealed that a quick perceptual response to an acute bout of brain activity could predict an athlete’s performance during competition (r =.584, p =.000). Additionally, Spearman’s correlation coefficients were used to estimate athletes performance. The results revealed a strong relationship (rs =.634, p =.000), which was derived from the summation of anxiety and perceptual response to an acute bout of brain activity. Conclusion: Consequently, the results of the present study can provide information to help staff coaches to choose the best performing players, representing an alternative method for accurately selecting key players in the competitive sports community. 2022-08-04T08:25:49Z 2022-08-04T08:25:49Z 2021-12-01 Article Health Information Science and Systems.
