background the importance of proper qualitative evaluation of eeg parameters during surgery has been recognized since many years. although none of the characteristics based on the frequency, entropy, and bi spectral characteristics have been regarded as a good predictor for detection of the depth of anesthesia alone. so it seems necessary to study multiple characteristics together. objectives i...

Quadrato Motor Training (QMT) is a specifically-structured walking meditation, aimed at improving reflectivity and lowering habitual thought and movement. Here we set out to examine the possible effect of QMT on reflectivity, employing the Hidden Figures Test (HFT), which assesses both spatial performance (measured by correct answers) as well as reflectivity (interpolated from correct answers a...
