Abstract: Objective: The main goal of our study is to clarify the EEG characteristics of the stress response caused by vestibular endurance training under the real conditions. Methods: Ten pilot trainees received a series of acute anti-vertigo training stimulations on the rotary ladder while recording electroencephalographic data (64 electrodes).Afterwards,the subject's anti-vertigo ability was tested for the best performance after 1 month of training, and verifying whether it is relating to the EEG signals we collected before. Results: (1) The absolute power of waves in the C3 and C4 regions is same as the difference between 1 min before and 2 min after stimulation, and their activity is enhanced by stimulation. Otherwise, the activation of the C3 region after 5min of stimulation is still significant changed. (2) Discover a spearman rank correlation, the waves in the C3 and C4 the greater the power change, the better the performance of the subject in the proficient stage. Conclusions: C3 and C4 areas are specific brain regions of the stress response of anti-vertigo endurance training, and the absolute power of the wave can be used as a parameter for identifying the degree of motion sickness (MS). The absolute power changes of waves in the C3 and C4 areas are positively correlated with their anti-vertigo potential. Significance: The increasing of the absolute power of wave in the C3 and C4 is a manifestation of MS stress adaptability. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info
