Wu, Shu-Fen; Lu, Yu-Ling; Lien, Chi-Jui – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Previous studies measured flow states using students' self-reported experiences, resulting in issues regarding nonobjective and nonreal-time data. Thus, this study used an electroencephalogram (EEG) to measure the EEG-detected real-time flow states (EEG-Fs) of 30 students from the 4th and 5th grades. Their EEG measurements, self-reported…
