The objective of this study is to investigate the relation and pattern of mental performance using Electroencephalography (EEG). EEG signals were recorded on ten subjects performing their mental workload tasks in 60 minutes time duration. Mental workload task contains 50 questions with four categories: mathematical intelligence, classification, logical and verbal intelligence. The results found that there is a strong correlation between RMS of EEG bands and time. The RMS values for all of EEG bands tend to decrease from the beginning until the end of the task. It indicated that mental workload task could affect the brain activity and also the performance. 2014-10-15T07:22:30Z 2014-10-15T07:22:30Z 2009-12-01 Article p.133-136 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/37419 en Proceeding of the National Symposium on Advancements in Ergonomics and Safety (ERGOSYM2009); Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
