Positive shyness and frontal EEG alpha/delta ratio in children: A pilot study

In two separate recent studies, researchers have reported an association between increases in children's shyness (i.e., social avoidance and inhibition) and decreases on frontal baseline electroencephalogram (EEG) alpha-to-delta ratio (ADR) scores (i.e., Schmidt & Poole, 2018, 2020). Here we attempted to extend these findings by examining whether different types of children's shyness were distinguishable on this same frontal ADR score, which is …
