Summary: The focus on evaluating the effect of stimulation on human cognitive function based solely on behavioral data neglects the understanding of physiological responses. This study objectively investigated the correlation between EEG voltage and oscillations pattern during visual learning encoding and recognition stages under various stimulation, combining EEG patterns with behavioral data. The evaluation showed that the most affected EEG channel was Fp2 with a voltage of about 0.1 V, and brain oscillations were higher during recognition than encoding. The study found a correlation between EEG voltage and rhythms patterns during encoding with recognition and behavioral data.
