Title:
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PREDICTING PROBABILITY OF EXPLOSIVE BEHAVIOR IN PEOPLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000016690
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for determining the probability of explosive behavior in a person of known age, sex and use of medication, is provided by generating and measuring a visually evoked response to a certain visually displayed paradigm and measuring the amplitude, in microvolts, of the evoked response at approximately 100 milliseconds after cessation of the paragigm display, and quantifying the absolute values of the delta, theta, alpha and beta frequency bands of a standard EEG, and applying this data to an algorithm to compute on the probability of explosive behavior.
